Lately I seem to have developed a bad habit of blinking when a batter swings.It hasn't caused me any problems yet but we all know I could miss a foul tip or assume a real swing was made when she held up.Has anyone had this problem and fixed it or know someone who has?By the way for other parts of the country I did four games in a tourn. yesterday and it was 80 deg. here in the central valley of Cal.

refjef40,
That can happen because:

A high, inside, perfect speed pitch was headed at your nasal septum area. A little slower, or a little faster, and it won't affect you.
It's slow enough to trigger the involuntary blink; I feel your pain.

A drop of 80 degree sweat got there the same time as the pitch; I wish to feel that pain.
