2. Are the combo pants really big enough to fit the shin guards for the plate? Do they look like bell bottoms on the bases?
For some they are, for others they are not. I have a friend who has skinny legs and no ***. Plate pants look like clowns pants on him. The combos work fine as plate pants. But they are too bif for him on the bases and he wears base pants/
3. From what I understand, the chest protector and mask are pretty much your key pieces of equipment. What do I need to look for here?
What level of ball are you doing?
4. I don't like the look of pure plate hats. Does the combo hat come off when you pull off the mask or do you have to work on that to keep it from coming off?
Nobody should like the look of plate hats. Learn to take your maks off properly and you will be able to weight an 8 stitch hat behind the plate.
5. Indicator on the bases to start out or no?
At the beginning, follow your trainer's advice.
6. I've worn under-armour stuff all season in football and basketball and expect to do the same baseball. Is UA stuff sufficient for the base layer under the equipment?
Yes.
