New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. recently fouled a pitch into his own groin, leaving many to wonder why he wasn’t wearing a cup for protection.
Chisholm explained that he has never worn a cup, even in the minor leagues where they are mandatory, and trusts his defensive abilities to protect himself.
Despite the painful incident, Chisholm stated that he will continue not to wear a cup, saying ‘I’ve never worn a cup. I’ve never been hit in the balls. That was just unlucky.’
