catcher does MUCH more than that. Aside from the fact that it is one of
the
more dangerous positions, having to catch 90+ mile an hour fastballs,
avoid
foul tips and home plate collisions, the catcher calls the pitches,
prevents
stolen bases, fields infield balls, and catches infield popups just to
name
a few. Unlike outfielders, a catcher is involved in every single pitch of
the game, not just the ones hit in his general direction.

But you're right about one thing, it does explain a lot. With all the
garbage and crap some of you throw at Dick, he _should_ be wearing shin
guards, body protector, a mask, and a cup. :)
