You are right about not stopping lawsuits, MTR, people will sue no matter how careful you are. But I don't see that as the issue here. The real issue is, as many others have said, insurance. When the insurers say wear a mask or we won't cover you, and the alphabet agencies say you can't play without insurance, masks are going to be mandatory for corners and pitchers. And that day is coming. I personally think that the governing agencies want this to happen so they don't have to be the bad guy.
Far more girls are hit in the face during practice at all positions. If this happens it won't just be pitchers and corners, it'll be everyone. TBH I've seen far more bucket Dad's get hit in the face than pitchers. That's where the mandate should be!
