I recently discovered the hard way that I am allergic to bee
stings and I now have an Epipen in possession. I was wondering if any fellow umpire has the same problem and how does he/she handle the issue of having one on the field while umpiring. I have never been stung on the field but before I didn't care. There are kits available to carry the pen on a belt some are in black so they would be less obtrusive. I suppose I could put the pen in the ball bag when I am doing the plate.
Any history out there with someone with the same problem.
