@deepzone31 3 года назад

Great video! I didn't learn about the two in the pinky until college. I like regular with finger out for catching and infield just for feel and control. Outfield is two in the pinky for life after discovering it. For pitchers two in the pink is probably the most functional for disguising pitches. I'll never forget the Doc Gooden incident where he was tipping his curve ball in the bigs with his index finger outside of the glove.

@garrydhintz8017 3 года назад

I always did it 2 in the pinky. I'd typically wear my index out of the glove but it's interesting to see the other ways of doing it. Fun fact is ichiro suzuki was notorious for cryogenically housing his bats and all sorts of things. Taking care of your tools are important. I used to keep a softball in my glove when I wasn't using it because I hated the feel of a collapsed pocket. I always wanted it to feel like it'll be a perfect shape around the ball. Cool video guys!

@matthollander6539 Год назад

I’ve always done three in the pinky. I also thought I was the only one. Either way, it’s the most comfortable. I feel like I have the most control of the glove and there is more pocket. Less area for your fingers to get hurt.

@WJSpies 3 года назад

Exactly how I learned, sitting on the coach throwing the ball into my glove. ..Friend told me to put a finger outside to deepen the pocket & minimize any possible stinging catches. Natural progression after a month or two was two fingers into the pinky slot. It's just natural, no one told me to do it. I had a smaller sized pitcher's glove. Maybe that's why. Extra length helped in the outfield if I was playing there.

@hollywood3353 2 года назад

Still do this as a 35yr old shortstop..have since travel ball..always create a better scoop as a SS w 2 in the pinky slot method..great videos, also watched teaching my daughter being not afraid to catch!

@Runn4est 3 года назад

I never knew this was a thing. I just always thought it was a weird thing I did. I especially used to do two in the pinky when I played outfield on random occasions since I was an infielder and only had an infielder mitt. Ultimately, I stuck with traditional finger out in the infield.

@malsell 3 года назад

I used to play outfield with one in each, switched to pitching and still had one in each, but had the index out. the glove I had, a Randy Johnson glove, had a hole in the index finger spot for your finger to come out. I used to keep a baseball in the basket at all times I was not using it. I would oil and rubberband it around the ball when I put it up for storage.

@fizzytheg.o.a.t8654 3 года назад

@timryan7422 3 года назад

Great video. And advice. I taught the 3 in the pinkie for outfielders to 13-year-olds. They looked at me like I had an extra eye growing in my forehead. I preferred the fingers in the normal finger holes, with the index finger out, for infield. I think you have better glove control. But that is just me.

@TheSeanashley 3 года назад

thats because even 13 year olds know its ridiculously stupid.

@ebogar42 3 года назад

You should never teach them anything like that. They should have their own preference. If you would have tried doing that to me at 13, we would have had issues. I have no problem catching and never did using it correctly. This sounds like something someone does who can't use the glove properly. At 13 I had no issues with closing, opening my glove, or catching the ball. I didn't at 10 years old either after learning.

@natas0733 3 года назад

Finger out for outfield too. I had an outfielders glove that already had the finger hole.

These guys held it together pretty good considering the subject matter of where to put your fingers…From high school on I used the “spock”, two in the pinky, two in the middle.

@phdyoutubedegree1939 Год назад

looking forward to try the rawlings glove pattern specially made for 2 in the pinky.

@baileysmith4744 2 года назад

ive tried everything from tranditional to 3 in the pinky with the index finger out (couldnt fit 4). 3 in the pinky is a great option for the outfield if you have a small hand or big glove (for me its small hand) as it gives you more leverage, and a larger pocket on a glove that is more length than depth. it really depends on the glove size, the hand size, and the way the player likes to shape their glove. also just so you know, Bellinger wears a 13” glove with 2 in the pinky - 1 finger out. i know Byron Buxton wears it 3 in the pinky

@chilln712 3 года назад

Hell yeah my 9yr old has done 2 in the pinky with finger out since day one!

@dennis_the_menacesoonerlif9645 3 года назад

I started putting two fingers in the pinky because I saw a dodgers game and I saw someone doing it so I tried it out the next day at a game, and I ended up playing better than I usually did. I was also like 10, 11, or 12 idk. Edit: I forgot one small detail. I'm a catcher (I have been since 3rd or 4th grade, so like 6-7 years) I also play outfield and 2nd. I'm fast enough to play any position, but I don't have a very strong arm so my coach(s) usually put me at 2 if I'm not catching and there's already an outfield.

@digitalbath5590 2 года назад

i've never found straight up to be comfortable nor straight up with your pointer finger out to be comfortable. 2 in the pinky is by far the most comfortable to me. 3 in the pinky isn't that bad either but i prefer 2. to each is own BUT i really don't recommend playing straight up. what's crazy is when i first tried 2 in the pinky it just felt right, i know you mentioned it may feel off at first and some getting used to but for me seemed as if it was meant to be lol.

My 9-year old grandson plays both infield and outfield for his AAA travel team and has been wearing his glove with his index finger out since he was 6.

@wildturkey9275 3 года назад

Played first my entire life and always had two in pinky and two in ring. Always felt like it made the pocket larger. And never had an issue after doing it that way of taking a ball off tip of pointer finger.

@seekunderstanding4280 Год назад

How was your catching performance with your fingers in that position?

@wildturkey9275 Год назад

@@seekunderstanding4280 It may not be for everyone but once I got used to it I never ever changed it. I felt it gave me better control of the glove, I felt like I had a bit more reach and range, and as I said I felt like the pocket of the glove was expanded. No more stingers to the tip of the forefinger on a ball that just missed the pocket. Also scooping I felt became a bit easier. Again it may not be for everyone but once I got used to it I wouldn't do any other way.

@superheavydeathmetal Год назад

Should the wrist strap be tight around the wrist? Gloves always seem tight around the wrist to me, and I don't understand why because when you try to close the glove around the ball, the tight wrist strap is working against you by making it harder to close glove.

@jakewells4 3 года назад

@SHARK1202X 3 года назад

So I made a post about 2 weeks ago or so. I said to myself, well crap... I do 2 in the pinky hole already... this is the first time hearing about 3 in the Pinky... well about a week ago I was looking for a Slowpitch glove... a Miken (black with a white basket) I went to put my hand in (my regular 2 in the pinky) and something seemed off... i mean it was a really comfortable glove... and something didn’t look the same when I put my hand in... well I ended up putting 3 in the pinky hole... and it was comfortable. But I’m not too sure about trying it still. I feel like I have more control with 2 than if I were to put 3 in the pinky (more like “keeping the glove on” control)
