Our Area UIC will not allow shorts in the park to be worn by any Umpire unless it's slowpitch
I did 8 Games last weekend and took two shots off the mask, three off the legs, two shot to my left forearm, one to the special protector that I almost didn't wear, and one that left ball stitches on my right wrist.
My UIC tells me that I am doing a good job staying in the slot and making sure that I see the pitch. I think he is paying the pitchers, and catchers to intentially work me over.
