I've seen it a couple of places. I would consider something like that for my parks and recreation guys if it wasn't $15.

a "clicker" and "sweeper" in one?

Not a clicker, its an indicator. Clickers are novelty noise makers, indicators are what umpires use.

...I wondered how long that was going to take!

I think he hooked you.

"During his decade as an umpire, Mike Nagorski found the indicator and brush he was using to be cumbersome and inefficient. Pocketing the indicator to brush off the plate was adding unnecessary time to games, but he had a plan to completely streamline the process. Mike created the Blue Plate Special - a combination of the indicator and plate brush that boasts the quality of the finest tools umpires are using today."

 

Am I the only one who found this absolutely hysterical? 10 years and he never figured out he could hold the indicator in his left hand and brush the plate with his right??

If they're going to combine a brush with anything, they should attach it to the toe of a plate shoe. No more bending over to sweep the plate;)

And umpires shouldn't use this, so it's a clicker.

Probably uses one of those belt hooks for his mask as well.

Probably uses one of those belt hooks for his mask as well.I see a business partnership in the making for those two products.

Interesting. I wonder how easy/hard the brush is to use once there is some break in time. If anyone gets this, I would like to see a review.
