I always wear shinguards, mask, and cup. Chest protector is usually my +POS unless very hot and then I use a Baloon. Shinguards are necessary because even with 10yr olds who basically throw slow pitch around here, I find the number of flying bats around my shins enough to convince me to wear them. As to the cup, last year I finished 2 games by myself because of teen age boy umps who didn't see any reason to wear a cup until after they left the game bendin over and walking real slow. OUCH!
Have fun out there,
Gordon
