I never saw a face mask until about four years ago. I've bought two in the past week, and am shopping for a third. Two of my girls used their's for the first time today, and it didn't seem to affect their hitting. I know what you mean about the foul ball in the mouth; I had the misfortune of seeing that happen. I hadn't thought about the masks in terms of base-running safety..figured the helmet protected the sides of the head well enough, but I guess you never know...
My prayer went out for the little girl with the head injury.
