What does everyone like to use for their Baseball Lineup Card Holder. I was thinking of purchasing the Honig's lineup card holder (#KIP), but I thought I would ask the officiating community before buying one. Any info is appreciated.

Old checkbook cover has always worked great for me.

I'm trying to figure out how to adapt one of those palm things. I'm for electronic lineup cards and electronic indicators. It should be no problem to make combination unit that announces the batter and the count at the press of a button (or a voice command).

I use the Honig holder and a bullet pencil. You have to fold the line-ups so I write on the back which is which. I like it because I can keep track of the visits.(LL,HS,College)

I fold ther lineups together and stick them in the [pocket of my ball bag.

I've never seen the need for a special holder.

I use them so I have something to write on instead of my hand. Also when you are calling a game in bad weather they stay dry.
