I think I can top you.
A couple of years ago, I stepped onto the field just knowing I was forgetting something. I went through pregame, and this was just eating at me. Finally, it came time for the first pitch, I squatted down behind the catcher, called, "Play Ball!", and started to pull down my mask when I finally figured it out...
...NO MASK!
Fortunately I bailed out before the pitcher delivered the pitch. My partner later told me he saw what was happening, but was in such disbelief that he couldn't get the words out to warn me.
We do have another in our association that has actually taken a pitch without a mask on. His comment: "Wow, I was wondering why I had such a clear view of the strike zone!"
