Hat Boy Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 The worst instances I have seen of pitchers being hit involve them taking one off the face. This hat doesn't protect against that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsFanBudMan Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 ^ Exactly, which is why I say if it was going to be this noticeable, why not go all out in the name of safety? Comfort, it seems, might be one reason, as this version apparently doesn't change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needschat Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I'm a pitcher, and as much as I fear getting a line drive to my head, I wouldn't ever consider wearing those stupid hats. I'd rather take my chances.That's what hockey players once said about wearing helmets.False equivalency. Hockey is, by its nature, a contact sport. Baseball is not. Besides, hockey helmets don't look ridiculous.Dancing is a contact sport. Hockey's a collision sport. Oh what could have been.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 How hard would it be to make a normal sized piece of hard plastic or metal that fits into the crown like the cardboard inserts?

Sport Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 If a bunch of pitchers start wearing them eventually we'll get used to it, but I wouldn't want to be the first dork to wear that dork helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
