While we may not be paid to be backstops we are paid to be there. Like all of you I have had the occasional catcher who was not a catcher but a retriever. I was getting hit all the time. Dang I was real glad I spent the money and bought some protective gear. I can (and I did) whine about it later, game on.
BTW one of the more popular Sunday School lessons I have taught is the full armor of God, where I dress in my full uniform and have the kids throw balls at me. Young boys will throw with everything they have, whereas girls will try not to hurt you.
