One of our outfielders wears a fielding mask - we have played on some outfields where the ball has come up and bitten players hard - and some of the lips between infield/outfield make the ball jump hard. She likes it because she says it lets her go 100% at a ball that has a good chance of jumping up and hitting her without worrying about it. Good for her.

Yep. You can play a bad bounce off of a mask better than off of your teeth.

What point are you attempting to make?

That when given a choice, people often make stupid decisions.

What kind of coach would do that? This is an example of why I have a problem with so many coaches.

This is exactly why it should be mandated... This coach is too macho, too ignorant, or just had dumb luck to not have had a severe injury on his watch that could have been easily prevented by a $25 mask.
