I will never, ever accept this as anything but a joke of an invention. It belongs on some reality show where inventors get rejected. I'd roll on the floor watching it get presented.

I had a partner wear one of these contraptions. I had to face the outfield between innings so I didn't blow cheese on my uniform when I burst out laughing.

Which is worse:
1.: The umpire mask hook or
2.: Tucking the throat protector in the back of the belt and letting the mask hang down over your butt.

Haven't seen #1, have seen #2.
