You can put me on that list with greymule. I always wear my shin guards and cup, but I wear my chest protector when I feel like I need it. I know, I need it all the time. But sometimes, it just too damn hot, and I don't feel like putting it on.
It may come from my younger days as a player. I caught men's fastpitch softball and the only think I wore then, was a cup and a mask. No shin guards, no chest protector. I look back now, and wonder why? I only knew one catcher that wore shin guards, none that wore a chest protector. But , at least now, when I don't have my chest protector on, I have a catcher in front of me.
I can't wait for this weekend now. If I choose to go without my chest protector, I'm know I'm going to take a shot.
