In Dan's first post he stated that this was his first year and he's 15 years old. Keep that in mind and give the kid a break.

His questions may seem amateurish to some, but that's exactly what he is.

Okay, I found the first post and "waltjp" is right. He stated that he was new and 15 years old.

True -- but there have also been experienced umpires masquerading as novice umpires. I'm not saying that's what Dan is, but the pattern fits. Dan can change the pattern if he is who he says he is.

You may be proved correct. Time will tell.

To answer the original question; He has the Mizouno mask from Japan and it does not come with a throat protector so it was modified. I know this because I have a friend that has one and that is what he has done with his mask. BTW the mask is the lightest mask I have ever picked up, and you can only get them from Japan.

The company is called BBTown. In Japan, they use the term "Judgement equipment" The mask runs about $150.00 USD + shipping[big$$]. Mizuno also just came out with the same mask, but with a throat guard.

Laying down $150 for a TM may not improve your judgement.
