No spit cups (especially the styrofoam ones).
Chewing sunflower seeds leads to unacceptable littering - straight out with that.
Chewing bubble gum is a bad example to the kids - think about the damage to their teeth! Banned also.
Swearing and cussing will lead to banishment from the game.
Rubber spikes only - that racist Ty Cobb used the metal ones to hurt people, others have done so as well.
Wooden bats shatter and can cause injury (especially those damn maple ones); aluminum bats are lethal weapons - but we’ll let you use wiffle ball bats (despite the evil petroleum-based plastic they’re made of).
Batters have died after being hit by pitched balls - tee-ball is good enough for the kids, surely professionals should be able to hit a ball off a tee.
Get to it, Senator Durbin - doubleplusgood job so far, but there’s so much more to do.
