"The testiclees"?! Oh my...

Actually, I've been thinking about getting a cup for calling games. I'm not worried about foul tips, but about 1st basemen with bad aim. I had one VERY close call when a first baseman gunned it to the plate to get the advancing runner. The ball skipped below the catcher's glove, and it hit me about 8" below the buddies. It left a bruise there for a month, and I could still feel some sort of muscle damage for months after that.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

NCASAUmp, I may as well jump in before someone else does. I can see why you wouldn't be afraid of a FOUL TIP, since a foul tip requires that the catcher secure the ball in her glove or hand. That wouldn't hurt since it isn't going to touch you. Dave

Touché. Y'all know what I really meant, though. Picky, picky...
