    Dumb question...

    Why does John Olerud(1B Seattle Mariners) wear a batting helmet instead of a ball cap when playing in the infield? I always wondered about this.

    there's no such thing as a dumb question, untill now.
    just kidding,
    i heard that he had some sort of a head injury in college. but i'm sure there's a mariner or blujay fan that knows the whole story.
    maybe he just got used to wearing a helmet from his days of riding the short bus to school.
