A post shared by @tristoncasasWhen first baseman Triston Casas arrived at the Boston Red Sox’s spring training, he had a unique look.Unlike his other teammates, the 23-year-old wore red fingernail polish and white toenail polish.
And he isn’t just wearing it during training. He said he plans on wearing the team’s colors on his fingers and toes for the entire season, Boston Globe sports reporter Julian McWilliams reported in a tweet.Triston Casas is seen here wearing red fingernail/white toenail polish.
Said he will likely rock this look during the season. That’s my content for the day. pic.twitter.com/a0y06IZGle— Julian McWilliams (@byJulianMack) February 17, 2023You could call Casas’ polish a bit of personal flair or maybe even a superstitious good luck charm.
But either way, he’s challenging the traditionally “macho” public face of pro sports by wearing cosmetics that have long been marketed exclusively to women.
