What happens on those days when you start with a jacket in the morning and 'round about the 4th inning want to take if off?

I am sure that he stays hot until after the seventh inning.

I've never had that problem concerning the morning - yet. I have taken it with me for an evening game and put it in a dugout "just in case". I probably should not have used the word "never" in my first post. If I start with my jacket, I will usually finish the game and change for the next game. The evening sitch is the only time I have had my shirt and jacket on at the same time. I said that we are supposed to do it - there are some "rebels" that buck the system!

Hey, I live dangerously - what can I say!

So far I am winning the collar war...just wondering if I should starch and iron again after washing them tonight. But...no collar flips so far. And I ironed the ends of the collars with lots of pressure...as much as this fat boy could muster and the ironing board could withstand...and the ends have stayed down.

Next I am going to starch my ballbags...not necessarily to starch them, but this stuff is stain resistant. While my ball bag is not a rag to clean balls, I end up with a muddy spot that finds a place onto the outside of the bag.

The starch will probably wash out, so you will likely have to repeat the procedure. But don't break your ironing board!
