[Husker] batting helmets

[Jerry]

Pine tar is used on any type of bats and also players will some times put it 
in their fielding gloves which is illegal.  It was announced today a 
professional player, pitcher, was suspended for 10 days when they found pine 
tar in his glove.  You cannot take the pine tar "rag" into the batters box. 
So players will start putting the pine tar on their helmets so they can get 
extra on their batting gloves when they are hitting.

Go Huskers.
