I hope someone sends this picture to the "powers that be" and make sure that these umpires do not advance to any more Federation playoff games.

This is the EXACT reason umpires that call Federation rules have problems.

While I agree with you I have to wonder what the chances are that this catcher put on this equipment for this game only. I'd be willing to bet that he's worn this for most of the season without anyone complaining.
