Why are they allowed?
If, as a batter, you want to stand on home plate, why should you be allowed that protection? There is no incentive for you to get out of the way. Its bullshit.
I'm watching Cubs players get drilled in the elbow all game long. Announcers just said one guy has been hit nine times this season.
Eric Thames for the Brewers looks like he's in body armor up there!
