throwback baseball leagues catch on.



As baseball season gets started, some players are rediscovering the joy of the sport by looking back — way back. Their hats have short brims. Their team initials are stitched on a rectangle of fabric buttoned to their long-sleeved collared shirts. And the strangest thing of all is this: No one in the field is wearing a glove.

"Vintage is without a glove. Only sissies wear a mitt," says Mickey Tangel, a retired teacher.
