Sunglasses

[Chris Winn]

There was a kid on a local travel team a few years ago that somehow injured his head to the extent that some sort of spike was driven into his skull. He missed the rest of that season, but when he came back the next year, he did so with a specific order from his doctor that he wear a batting helmet at all times, a la John Olerud. He mostly played second base, but if he had gone to the mound, I would have allowed the helmet.
