You're kidding, right? Shin guards? Chest protector? Throat guard? You don't wear those, right? Tough it out.
The forearm guards don't show when I umpire, and I don't bleed internally when I'm hit.
By the way, if you wear your protector, it's not hard shell. Right? And you cut off the shoulder pads. Right?
Hey, if that's what you think baseball is, I want you toughing it out on my crew, calling the foul line in right field.
Have a nice day.

you might as well stand behind a plexi-glass panel and call the game from there.
make sure you cut your fingernails really short, wouldnt want to break a nail.
im sorry, but i dont care if you are carl childress. i will never wear arm pads, and even if i get hit, an ice pack after the game will cure the swelling.
