Sweet! Handy Dandy and surely fits perfectly in my ball bag that I wear when I'm on the bases too!

I bet it looks swell with a plate coat...

The possibilities are endless.

ONLY 20 bucks!!!

As entertaining as your equipment presentation was at the last ASA clinic, I would have enjoyed watching you demo the right-handed glove with free indicator. Perhaps there could have been two demos with a black glove on the left hand and white glove on the right hand.

Get your Umpire's Glove (patent pending) now.
$19.95 per glove plus shipping.

You get:
one glove (right or left) with indicator (black or white)
Sizes available are:
Small, medium, large or extra large

I'm trying to figure out how their masks get so dirty and pick up chalk. Are they suggesting the umpire drop their masks?

Can anyone tell me why I should have both my hands free, when I (as PU) am walking towards the field?

Actually, I much prefer hanging my mask over my belt-holstered cell phone.

While I would not get caught dead with my mask hanging from my belt, as one who suffers from carpal tunnel syndrome, the glove for my left hand when I am behind the plate might not be a bad idea.

Perhaps the glove can be an instrument used by the UIC for reaching up the umpire's a$$ who wears it to pull out his teeth.

And with the hook, I can see it now... "Hey, Blue? Are you going to buy my catcher a nose job and a new eyeball? It was your hook that caused that damage when she fell over because she tripped on your mask that you tossed aside. Yes Blue, your mask. The one lying there on the chalk line."

Tired of carrying that indicator all day?

Don't you hate dropping it in the dirt and having to clean it off?

What good is being able to hang your mask on your belt if you still must carry that clicker around???

Is there anything more embarrassing than having a great lawn mower sell out that sends the girl to the dug out crying... only to realize you tossed your indicator half way to short stop?

I know I hate it when that happens... so I came up with a solution.. and...

Have I got the product for you!!???!!!111



Attaches neatly to your wrist.

Available in any color as long as it's black.

I do accept paypal, so place your orders now!!

~~~~Edited to Add Celebrity Endorsement!!!!~~~~

This is a picture of MLB Umpire Rob Drake using the Clicker Lanyard in a Major League Game!!!

Add is parody, if you take it seriously, well maybe you and MichaelVA2000 are soul mates.

Nice photoshop work, wade. Don't laugh too soon... You might want to test the waters with this "product" - given what other people seem to be selling... leather ball bags, umpire glove, mask hook,...

I just wonder where the facemask hook goes if you are one of the many umpires who wears two ball bags?
