What kinds of clothing protects best against the sun?

Don't fry at the game!

Going to a game? The players may have plenty of sun protection, but spectators often roast. Take along a survival kit such this suggested by the Skin Cancer Foundation Journal:

*A broad-brimmed hat. Not a baseball cap with a bill.
*A light T-shirt won't provide much protection: Choose a tighter knit, and use sunscreen under it.
*Bring a long-sleeved shirt.
*Wear long pants or use plenty of sunscreen on your legs.

Research has shown that the number of hours spent in the sun correlates with the risk of skin cancer.
