Padres put on costumes for last road trip of the season

Dennis Grombkowski

It's become a bizarre tradition around the Major Leagues for rookies to be forced to dress up in embarrassing, usually effeminate costumes for the last road trip of the season.  In most cases this is a chance for the veteran players to really play out their fantasies of seeing the young studs strut their stuff.    When you've already seen your teammates day after day in baseball pants, jock straps and, hell, naked in the showers, you need something really kinky to get the blood flowing to your nether regions.

One of the more popular years was in 2008 when the rookies dressed up as Hooters waitresses.  Last year there didn't seem to be a theme, but it was nice that the veteran's played dress up to, even if it was as a pimp to the rookies prostitute.

Last night as the Padres embarked on their last road trip they all squeezed into weird and sexy costumes.  I like that veteran players are getting involved as true teammates would.

Let's try and name all the players pictured and the costumes their wearing. This is going to be really difficult for me because I've never taken a good long proper look at any of these players faces. My eyes just go straight to their backsides. Help me out, won't you?

There's 20 guys in the picture, let's label them 1-20 from left to right.
