Baseball is in the lead here. To think otherwise ... sigh.
Baseball has had fatalities, coma inducing head injuries. Been on national TV programs. What the boys conclude, and so far the result is de-rating bats back to being wood.
Softball will follow suit. Never are masks being brought up in baseball. Because once this slippery slope is started, all pitchers will be wearing helmits, chest projectors, shin guards, and will look like catchers.
Sorry, but that is not where this is all headed.
