In 1877, a Harvard player named James Tyng became the first catcher to ever wear a mask behind the plate, after teammate Fred Thayer adapted a fencing mask to protect his face. It was a small invention with enormous consequences — and it happened in Cambridge, on a Harvard diamond.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003eMade from genuine wool broadcloth with felt appliqué lettering, this pillbox-style hat reaches back to the late 1800s, when nine hats just like this took the field for the Crimson.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ebbets Field","offers":[{"title":"ADJ","offer_id":46991106539709,"sku":"23198078","price":97.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/1618\/files\/23213573_CLEMENTE21VNECK_MESHJERSEY_ORANGE-WHITE-01.jpg?v=1785768085","url":"https:\/\/www.ebbets.pro\/en-ca\/products\/harvard-h-pillbox-cap","provider":"Ebbets Field","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
