Safety First: Batting Helmets

Question:  Can getting hit by a 5 ounce baseball cause a concussion?
Answer:  Yes it will.

It is the time of year when we break out the cleats and gloves and take the fields.  However, safety must start before those cleats ever touch the clay.  It is tempting to use last season's batting helmet.  However, it is essential that batting helmets fit properly to provide optimal protection.  Second hand equipment is fine if properly inspected and it fits the player appropriately.  Use this batting helmet sizing guide for assistance.
