Should pitchers be required to wear helmets?

Twice this year a pitcher has taken a line drive to the head. It seems stupid that the base coaches are required to wear helmets but pitchers don't have to.

pitchers have gloves, base coaches are old guys just standing there

Then they would get neck injuries.

maybe this would be all together safer.

that would be just awkward to have on your head in the pitching motion.

Hell, Dwight Howard elbows 2-3 people per game.
Maybe, NBA players should be wearing helmets too?

Would probably save thousands of people a year... but I'll take my chances.

Maybe put up an L screen?
This thread is ridiculous.

Were a nation of pussies - everytime one thing goes wrong we overreact and mandate sweeping rules that are really detrimental.
In the case of airport security we have to make flying suck. In the case of baseball we have to have fielders look like tools (John Olerud).

Twice this month a pitcher has thrown a perfect game, too. Are you out there proclaiming that it's the end of batting in the majors now?

I thought John Olerud wore the catchers helmet on his own?
