How many times does it happen? They made the heart protector due to 2 deaths, one of which I witnessed. Should every player that play's baseball wear it?

You want to eliminate head injuries to the pitcher by putting them in a helmet? Eliminate Aluminum bats, change the core to the baseball, extend the length of pitchers mound those are all more viable than putting a helmet on the pitcher. And do all of this Why? How many injuries would have been prevented?

I get that we want to protect all, but at what cost? How do you suggest prevention of concussions for football players? Put them into double sized helmet?
