I never understood how catchers could shite-squat for 9 innings and catch heaters and then have to pop up to throw out runners.


First time I caught was a three hour practice, and I was being the plate the entire time.

I have never been that exhausted or bruised. We didnt have quite the equipment they have today.

I played second base in LL and HS. One year in LL I thought it would be fun to catch. Mind you these are only 6 inning games, nobody steals and the pitcher could only throw fastballs back then....

...after 2-3 games, it was basically screw this....can I go back to 2nd or Short?
