Cool

TheSlav,

Apparently, they're still holding out.

Quote:
F. Catchers are required to wear proper protective equipment including a mask with throat guard, chest protector, shin guards and protective headgear which gives protection to the top of the head when catching behind the plate. Any player serving as a catcher to warm up a pitcher
shall wear a mask, whether the pitcher is warming up from the mound, in the bullpen or elsewhere.
Maybe the other guys who let him wear the "skully" actually knew the rules the games were played under.
