Two players same team.

People would say catcher has a really hard task behind the plate with the ball coming at them all the time. I always thought the catcher has it better because we get to wear all that protective equipment.

I would absolutely where I fielding mask anywhere else on the field!


Didn't see the video of what happened in the game even with the face mask on the helmet still tagged her? Did the ball go under the chin part?
batter did not have face guard on her helmet when took foul ball

She had one of those helmets with the extended ear flap.

And years back we were playing with no helmets even though there were helmets that could have been worn.
( even when helmets were mandatory in Boys Baseball they were not in softball)

Hmmm...🤔 thinking it through cannot recall any rule that says player cannot wear protective equipment, doesn't have to be a requirement to make it a smart thing to do!
