So two questions:

1) In Alabama we usually will do a V/JV doubleheader and in Summer we'll work plate/base/off on a three game rotation. Do most people use combo pants for this or do you switch from plate to base pants?

2) Any comments on Gerry Davis, Cliff Keen or Plus POS? I've seen too many pairs of pink Fecheimers to put them on the table. I'll have to break down and buy a pair of those next season if I get my National but I'll delay it till then.

Thanks for your input.

Derek, as Tom has already stated, sooner or later the "pink" appearance will happen with any heather gray umpire pant. I have had more luck with Fechheimer than with any other that I have tried (Cliff Keen, Dalco), and subsequently those are all that I order now.
