I just turned 58 and still catch DD, she is 15 and throws junk in the mid 50`s. Last year I let a inside FB go by without putting the glove on it, well it ricocheted off the backstop pipe (4ft behind me) hitting me in the back of head resulting in an mild concussion.On another occasion a pitched inside 2 seam FB took a sharp break to the outside then a hop up; well the ball rolled over the top of the glove pocket and hit me in the nose...result broken nose. I now wear a mask and remember the phase, explode your eyes... don`t blink. Enjoy the fun guys it goes past too fast.
