It’s the pitcher’s responsibility to start every live-ball play. It’s one of the most unique positions on the field and you’ll need a professional-grade baseball glove to help get the win.

Pitcher’s gloves are usually closed webbing, meaning there are no voids in the leather webbing. This is to help hide the pitcher’s grip on the ball when it is in the glove. No pitchers want to tip off the batter as to when they are throwing a curve, change-up, or heater. Most pitcher’s gloves are 11 – 12-inches in length, as this allows both the room to hide the ball during delivery and is maneuverable enough to snag a line drive back to the mound.
