I've found the best way to not worry about being hit is to just get in there and work the game. The batter might get hit. The catcher WILL get hit. Gear up, keep your eyes OPEN so you can see it and get it square in the mask instead of closing your eyes, flinching (or God help you TURNING YOUR HEAD), and keep a nice one pound New York strip steak in the freezer. IF you get hit, use it. If it's a good game and you get out one one piece, GRILL it!
