One time, only, the first year I called ball. The disparaging remarks made about him behind his back convinced me I would never need to wear the gear in SP. It does seem to me, however, the last 2 years, I've heard of more umps getting hit by foul balls. I personally think it's because more batters are swingging at the high pitch, which, if fouled back gives you very little reaction time. This is why I've started turning sideways a little more in the SP game. Less of a target, doncha know.
