So did I, but ordering a mask bag from an umpire gear web site made the titanium experience somehow feel more complete.

(I loved your I-expected-it-to-come-with-a-Crown Royal-kind-of-bag reference ... GREAT stuff )

I can't believe it ....

Ok, 3 plate jobs this year with the new mask. Got hit for the 1st time with an 88 mph fastball, I know b/c I asked the guy charting after the game. It was a right handed pitcher that uses a drop down, side arm delivery and the ball sailed on the catcher. I got hit in what would have been my left nose/cheek area. And I tell you all this, because the freaking mask bent and bent good. I was so pissed. I mean, if I buy a $80 mask and it bends, that is one thing, but when you spend top dolar, you don't expect the damn thing to bend like that the first time you get hit. I am sending it back on tuesday and getting a new one sent to me, but the point is wow, didn't expect it to cave in like it did. Anyone else been hit hard durring a live game with the mask yet?

Hey Durham,

Take some pictures if you can and post here or somewhere so we can see the damage. Inquiring minds want to know (see).

Thanks.
