While on our high school baseball team, we convinced our 10 year old bat boy that the extra catcher's cup/supporter was a "nose guard" that should be worn when he was working around the batter's box. We had some good laughs then forgot about it for a decade until we ran into the young man who was now a star baseball player on his Big 10 college team. Fortunately he had no hard feelings and had "educated" some of his bat boys.
