Rogers Bases - Break-Away Replacement Base Plates
01541Details
Replacement base plates come in a set of 3!
LITTLE LEAGUE® has used the ROGERS® BREAK AWAY® BASE® exclusively in the World Series Complex, as well as all regional facilities, since 1992. The first base engineered and designed to avoid sliding injuries! Designed so that the base top compresses to absorb the shock, initially protecting the player’s body as they slide into the base. The base top will then dislodge if contacted with enough lateral forces that would typically cause an injury. If dislodged, the player comes to rest on the top of the base plate which is flush with the ground, thus avoiding injury. The base plate that remains is used by the umpires to render a decision. Rogers® is the only detachable base that has been scientifically studied, tested, and proven to greatly reduce the occurrence of sliding injuries. Choose from four different breakaway strengths. Simple installation, similar to a traditional set of bases.
