'Rookie dress-up day' is a tradition unlike any other throughout Major League Baseball.
Veterans pick out costumes for first-year players to wear on the last road trip of the season and now, more than ever, fans are able to witness this awkward rite of passage thanks to social media and cell phone cameras.
