Out of curiosity .. why wear it?

Is it for the potential ball off back stop? Thats about the only advantage I see to it.

The deal breaker for me, besides the hat issue (I dont want to wear a scrunched up hat from my pocket), was imagining working a 4+ games behind the plate wearing that damn thing in a 100 degree heat.

I dont agree these helmets are the "wave of the future" - I think some will wear them and thats it. They sure dont look good, so that big ole helmet, that doesnt look good, for minimul gain...
