Folks,

Just curious if anoyone uses it, or can find one.

Just for fun I tried the latest Allstar helmets, the 2200SP and 3000, and I found both were not real good.

I guess that even if I am an old traditionalist when it comes to equipment, helmets might have a place.

I have a friend who is in the lower minors, and he says PBUC is recommending that all MiLB umps at least try a helmet, saying they are having too many guys getting concussions even with the newer mask padding.

Of course, I assume the helmet subject has been kicked around here more than a ball at an MLS game, or at least as much as a my local HS teams are doing fielding the ball these days. But, any other helmet comments are appreciated.
