2010 Junior Baseball Gear Guide: Gloves - Fielding & Batting

We've got you covered - on the field and at the plate.

1. Company: Louisville Slugger
Product: Bionic TPX SRG1 Batting Glove
Price: $30
Sizes: Youth
Ages: Youth
Why it's hot: The new Bionic batting gloves incorporate more than 10 years of Bionic research and are also the first batting gloves branded with Sting Reduction Guard (thus the model number SRG1). Bionic gloves have also proven to help players with hand pain and injuries by off-loading stress points. The padding not only promotes a lighter grip, it reduces vibration and sting.

2. Company: Louisville Slugger
Product: Omaha Crossover Boxter Catchers Mitt
Price: $80
Sizes: 31" circumference
Ages: Youth-Advanced
Why it's hot: Perfect for the player who is crossing over from youth baseball to more competitive levels. The Boxter has a more box-shaped design than a traditional circular catcher’s mitt, creating a wider space between the thumb and pinky finger, which not only allows more catching surface, it also provides an easier means for closure.
