If it is daytime I wear sunglasses on bases. If it is daytime I wear sunglasses on plate if the sun is in front of me. I don't if it is behind me. I worked a game on bases tonight where the sun was setting out toward LF. I wore sunglasses when in the A, and when I moved to B or C I slipped them into my pants pocket because the sun was behind me. I work one high school field where the sun sets in CF and it would be very difficult to call the game from behind the plate as the sun sets withoout sunglasses. I don't know why the state would put umpires at disadvantage by not allowing sunglasses.
