i believe "taken out of play" is in reference to baseballs taken out of play. who takes out a jersey in the middle of an inning?

in my other example, how can the road jerseys be taken out of play during a home game?

how is the hat or bat taken out of play when there is a photo of the player wearing the item in action?

i am just not taking a very literal interpretation of the hologram date because there are so many flaws/exception to the MLB authentication system. but we take what is given and hopefully the system will improve.
