Some teams are wearing a black "34" patch to honor Nick Adenhart, the Angels rookie starting pitcher who was killed in a DUI hit-and-run following his first start of the 2009 season. A black patch with his name and number (34) was added above the left breast of the Angels' teams uniform, and in respect, some players who knew him or played with him are also wearing it.
It's not "MK" It's "HK." HK stands for Harry Kalas, who was the beloved announcer for Phillies. He died in 2008 and was honored by the patch on their jerseys that says "HK."

If you get your period while wearing the birth control patch, continue using the patch as scheduled. If this becomes a problematic pattern for you, contact your health care provider.
If you are wondering why the Philadelphia Phillies are wearing the number 36 patch, then it is Brian Roberts who was a pitcher with the Phillies in the Whiz Kids days. His number 36 was retired on March 21st 1962, after being traded to the New York Yankees. Roberts pitched for the Yankees in this game, one that his team would win 13-10.Brian Roberts is an infielder currently playing for the Baltimore Orioles. The number 36 retired by the Phillies was worn by pitcher Robin Roberts, who was with Philadelphia from 1948 to 1961. With the Phillies in 14 seasons, Roberts was 234-199, 3.46. He had 4 straight 20 win seasons between 1952 and 1955, winning 28 in '52 and 23 in the other three years. He also led the NL in losses in 1956 and 57. He was the NL leader in games started from 1950-55, complete games from 1952-56, shutouts in 1950, innings pitched from 1951-55, and strikeouts in 1953-54. He was an All Star from 1950-56. Roberts was sold, not traded to the Yankees after the 1961 season, and released in May 1962. He signed with the Orioles and pitched for Baltimore, Houston and the Chicago Cubs before retiring in 1966. I'm not sure what 13-10 game the original answer references, unless it was a preseason game played on the day his number was retired by the Phillies. Roberts was elected to the Hall Of Fame in 1976.
James Taylor made an appearance with John Legend on Larry King Live and was wearing an eye patch over his left eye. When asked "what happened to your eye?" Taylor replyed that he had fallen at home and hit a table cutting the area around his eye. It was visible at the bottome of the eye patch that there were some bandages showing and a small cut peeking out from the patch.
