I had an umpiring buddy who was at the game when Mike Coolbaugh got hit. He said it could have been any of us.
I'm not going to wear my plate gear on the field, and I don't want to wear a helmet on the bases.
But if a $10 piece of plastic will keep me from going to the ER with swollen testicles... I will give it a try. I'm a fairly old dog, but I'll try to learn a new trick.
And if I try it a few games and decide it isn't worth the hassle, I'll get on here and admit I was wrong.
