From rally caps to eating the same meal before every game, superstitions are a big part of baseball. Do you have any baseball-related superstitions, or know players who do? What do you think about these quirky traditions and their influence.

Baseball superstitions are deeply ingrained in the game, with players believing that certain rituals or habits can influence their performance. These can range from wearing the same socks during a hitting streak to avoiding specific actions, like stepping on the foul line. Famous examples include Yogi Berra’s belief in "not talking about a no-hitter" and David Ortiz’s habit of tapping the bat on the plate before each pitch.
