Oh, sure, you have to listen to a lot of jokes about being a homeless umpire, but for ten new equipment bags a year for less than a buck apiece, it's worth it.
You can also poke a hole in the bottom of one, and use it as a parka. Just make sure you use either the navy or black ones, to match your partner.
