Another day, another on-field gender reveal in Major League Baseball.
Continuing what has become a trend in the early weeks of the 2026 season, Cleveland Guardians pitcher Tanner Bibee took the field for Friday’s matchup with the Baltimore Orioles sporting pink shoelaces to reveal that his brother and sister-in-law are expecting a baby girl.
Bibee joined Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Brandon Pfaadt and Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Joey Bart in using their on-field gear to reveal the gender of a baby to someone close to them.
Pfaadt wore pink shoelaces during his start last Saturday against the Philadelphia Phillies to reveal that his brother Brett and Brett’s partner, Hannah, are having a daughter.
Earlier this week, Bart donned a pink armband on behalf of teammate Braxton Ashcraft to reveal to family and friends that the pitcher and his wife are going to have a baby girl.
Did each player channel the vibes of sharing their good news with family, friends and fans into a successful performance?
Pfaadt allowed three runs on five hits and three walks over six innings, taking the loss in a 4-3 defeat to the Phillies. Ashcraft earned a no-decision while giving up two runs and five hits with seven strikeouts in an 8-7, 10-inning loss to the Nationals. Bart batted 1-for-5 and whiffed twice in the game.
Bibee began his start Friday by throwing four scoreless innings versus the Orioles.
