Reply to "Getting hit in the neck"

thanks for the replies, guys!

I do have some video of him catching, but I don't think I've got anything of how he reacts to a foul tip.

In both instances, it was a righty hitter and he was hit in the left side of the neck (closest to the batter). Both time it looked like an inside pitch that deflected off the bat to his neck. He stayed in the game both times, but seeing him on all fours for a minute in obvious pain was more than a bit scary..

As much as I can tell, he does keep "still" while catching.

These hockey-style masks (yes, his is an adult size) extend straight down to protect the adam's apple. They don't do much around the sides, though.
