The New York Yankees have a weird yet unique traditional policy in their clubhouse. Yes! Unlike the cool celebration of every other MLB team, the Yankees have a policy for facial hair. The Yankees do not allow their players to have facial hair apart from the mustache. Recently, a former Yankees pitcher, revealed how Derek Jeter terrified him by joking about another new hair policy.

Almost every clubhouse in any sport has a certain rule, regulation, or policy. When talking about MLB clubhouses, the Angels have a tradition to let their home run hitter wear the infamous cowboy hat, while the Red Sox do a laundry cart ride to celebrate the win.
