I've seen a lot of MLB umpires hiding behind the catcher lately, in any kind of stance (except Wally Bell's kneeling). The catcher moves for an outside pitch, there they go moving out there with him and hiding.
If I was getting the money they are, I'd be proudly set up in the slot, totally exposed and willing to take the shot. Besides, they are sitting behind professional catchers. These guys don't let the ball hit the umpire very often. Man, I'd be in the scissors and never flinch once if I had that luxury.
