Thanks Bob for the great info on the benefits of water. Right on the mark in my opinion.
One of the other issues, for umpires, that wasn't present 20-30 years ago is the inside chest protector. I wear a Wilson, and the closed foam right against your body does not breathe at all. It is like a blanket. Definitely causes an increase in heat at the chest area, and if you are workings doubles on the plate in 90* temps, it puts a tremendous strain on the body. These protectors are quite comfortable in February, for the same reason.
