How to keep from chafing with a cup on in baseball?

My son is a catcher in Georgia...so very hot, very humid, and he is starting to chafe badly! Some people have said use baby powder, others have said anti-monkey butt, others swear by a product called body glide that looks like a deodorant stick...

So....fellas how do YOU keep your parts from chafing with a cup on?

P.S. He does travel ball so he can play 2-4 games a day!

    I always used sliding shorts with a cup insert. Also, it sounds blatantly obvious, but make sure he is using the proper size cup!

    I too, played travel ball in the middle of summer, and on the days where chafing was unavoidable, we tended to use petroleum jelly which seemed to work wonderfully.

    Dont make him play baseball then...get him in an actual sport like football, soccer, or basketball

    Never happened, never had any problems with a cup.
