Abstract
A baseball chest protector includes a protector pad to which is united a chest protector harness. The chest protector harness includes a generally Y-shaped harness back portion defined by a juncture portion, a pair of upwardly diverging arms and a generally downwardly projecting leg formed as a single piece of injection-molded synthetic polymeric or copolymeric material. A lower harness portion or spine portion is also formed as a single injection-molded piece of synthetic polymeric or copolymeric material and is united by an adjusting buckle to the leg or first part of the upper back harness portion. Adjusting buckles also adjustably secure a pair of elastic webs to the arm portions of the Y-shaped harness back portion and the elastic webs are each in turn secured by two injection molded harness top tab portions to shoulder areas of the protector pad of the baseball chest protector.
