Up until a couple years ago I did hockey. CCM and Bauer both make shin guards not unlike the GDs. EXCEPT - the wraparounds are nice when it's on ice but I think they'd be uncomfortably hot for baseball. Also, they are intended to be snug for skating and again uncomfortable for baseball.

ALSO, referee shins are designed for stick blades, not to stop pucks thus I don't think I'd want to depend on them for plate work!
