Hey Brian, the norm with us is that the jacket goes over a turtleneck or UA, not another pullover shirt. Overlayer yourself because it's only going to get colder as the sun starts to set, esp prior to the time change. I don't ever recall a partner delayering in the middle of a game, but I can't count how many times I or my partner have regretted not putting on the extra layer because it was 50 degrees at 4:00 and 38 at 5:30.
And Brian...dump the POS protector! That was a failed experiment by Buck and company. The best equipment decision I ever made was dumping that after one season for a West Vest Gold.

yeah ive always gone with the jacket over a turtleneck or something like that. i just found it odd that other people wore a pullover shirt under it. i cant really see anyone going over between innings and pulling off their jacket, hanging it up on the fence, and then finishing the rest of a game. it would look a bit funny to me.
im definitely looking into a WV gold soon, i need to dump that +POS one. ive tried the gold a few times and liked it a lot. the 20% off winter deal +POS runs got me hooked a bunch of years back and i bought into their trap haha.

Here in Southern Calif (North LA County) it's not unusual in early spring or late fall for it to be 70 at game time & drop to 50 or less w/wind by the 5th (Or stay around 68).
Many of the guys will just hang a jacket on the fence & put it on if needed. Too much of a pain to take a shirt off at that point. (We can wear long sleeves at the plate but not on bases).
Start w/jacket - appropriate weight turtleneck underneath.
