Sounds good today!

40 degrees!

41 (wind chill 30) today. I did pick a great day to turn in a 73 minute plate job, though.

60 and above, short sleeves. 50-60, jacket on bases, long sleeve shirt behind plate, maybe a long sleeve silk layer underneath depending on low or high 50's. 40-50, under armour cold wear under long sleeve shirt behind plate, turtle cotton/poly under jacket on bases, light weight gloves on bases. Under 40, jacket behind plate or base with everything I can put on underneath. I have some gloves I can wear on plate if necessary (rarely) and I have worn backside wrap earmuffs on bases if cold enough.

I remember a DH a couple years ago in upper 30's with winds steady at 10 MPH and gusts higher. I had everything I own on for base job and only thing I dropped for plate was muffs and big thick gloves.

Ended up working with a temperature of 41 and wind chill in the upper 20s. For the first time in years, I wore a jacket on the plate with cold gear underneath. Underarmour gloves. Partner put on the kitchen sink and still froze. Just a miserable day for baseball.

Bright side to the story is that I had a 73 minute plate, 10-0 walkoff hit in the bottom of the fifth inning.

welpe,if you do not like the weather in Texas, wait five minutes. it will change. have a warm and safe end of the season...

in the last two weeks I've called a game in 35 degree weather and in 92 degree weather. wish it would just stay warm!
