I'm not real sure what I should have titled this thread, but I am sitting here typing 1-handed and glad that I've chosen to wear 2 ball bags when doing the plate. Tuesday night I had a plate game and just after the last warmup pitch, I reached into my left bags for something. I thought I found a pin - turns out it was a bee or some other nasty little creature that stung me. Up until 15 yrs ago, I never had any swelling or other reaction to stings, that all changed after a spider bite & I get kinda swollen now. Anyway, I wear 2 bags and keep bals & brush in one and lineup card & holder & other stuff in the other. One of the teams provided me with a break & shake ice pack that I kept on my hand at each hald inning break & then stuck in the ball bag. Had I only been wearing a single bag - like I did just a few years ago - I'd have had to do something else. Looks like we've been busy elsewhere & this board needed something added. Meanwhile, a curse on all those nasty stinging little creatures.

Make sure you toss some salt over your shoulder Don.......
The garlic is a plus...........  Joel Steve........sorry for your sting........those guys (the stinging kind) can make you feel like you have been hit by a 2x4. NO fun. When I worked outdoors.......I worked with a guy who kept a "bee-sting" kit with him at all times........I was instructed on how to give him a shot of the "adrenelin/epenepherin".........I am glad it never happened........even a minor allergic reaction can turn into a MAJOR one quickly.
