I'm not sure about the year it was changed or the "Grandfather" thing, the last guy I remember wearing one was Dave Winfield. Of course, John Olerud wore one in the field as well.
Interesting question...

The last player to wear one was Tim Raines with the White Sox. I'm not sure when the rule change took place though.
