Eye Protection

[SWFLguy]

I am not a fan of sunglasses, but have no gripe with any partner that uses them, especially if they are in the field facing the setting sun. I began wearing my prescription bifocals (no line type) behind the plate and will never go w/o them. The big help is reading some of the line-up cards we get.
Memo to those who wear sunglasses: please remove them when holding a conversation !

And make sure they're not reflective. Tom Cruise never umpired.

Ya NC I know my pair this year was like $50-55 from Peepers.com cheapest I could find....I also used to by them for $20-30 from bikenash (apparently they were used by bikers alot?) but they didn't seem to carry my style anymore.....hence the added case for off field protection this year!

Please remember, sun light is the number 1 cause of cateracts. Had both lenses replaced a couple of years ago. Sun glasses are cheaper!
