Catcher and Umpire Behind Home Plate at a Baseball Game
Coloring guide
Down low behind home plate, a smiling young catcher holds his big mitt open and waits for the next pitch. He's geared up with a helmet and face mask, a chest protector, and chunky shin guards over his cleats. Right behind him, a grown-up umpire leans forward to watch the play, wearing a cap, face mask, collared short-sleeved shirt with a chest pocket, belted pants and sneakers. A chain-link backstop, a few leafy bushes and little tufts of grass fill in the background. Big open spaces make this free printable a good match for kids who enjoy coloring gear and uniforms. Bold red or navy could work for the catcher's helmet and chest protector, with a different color on the umpire's shirt so the two stand apart. Kids who like Baseball coloring pages usually enjoy NHL / Hockey and WWE / Wrestling too.
