Looking back at the best Halloween costumes from MLB players in years past
Halloween is a great holiday because it offers people of all ages an excuse to eat candy all day. For one day each year, there's no judgment for those who drop the veneer of healthy eating to indulge in all manner of party-sized sweets.
