I’d definitely look into saving money for a 1st baseman glove. I got my first when I was 11 and I still use it in my junior year, it makes scooping, and everything in general feel much smoother.
Get something you can use at a ton of positions when your young and as you find which one you’re good at/like switch to whatever side I’ve is best for that. Kids don’t need multiple gloves to play, plus they can get pretty expensive for everyday people
I wore a 12 inch for years when I was 13-18. 95% of the time I played 2B. Other times played SS and OF or anywhere else. Worked everywhere really. Also had a 11.75 inch for a bit at 2B at 17-18 years old.
@@certifiedfnhater4038I love my glove, unfortunately I gave up playing baseball a few years ago. I think mine is somewhere between 11.75 and 12.25, I know it's originally intended to be a pitcher's glove but I wore it playing everywhere except catcher and sometimes outfield (I have an older outfield glove, but I don't really like it)
I am a 12 year old 3rd base I use a 11,5 and a 11,75 it makes it easier for me with my a1000 to get quick and contrails 11,5 but my 44 is a 11,75 it makes it easier also to play outfield with the 11,75
Hey man quick question, I started playing baseball when I was 8, I’m 12 now and I’m abt to play open division in the fall, but I haven’t played in a year so how do I get better and make sure I keep these things that I’ve learned
For anyone 9 or older --middle infield 11.25 - 11.75 (unless they like or want a really small glove then go with 11)...3rd base 11.50-12 ...anywhere in the outfield 12+
Totally agree, I’m a 14 year old third basemen with a 11.5 2016 Jose Altuve model A2000 and I play shortstop and third, i know third basemen usually have a different glove but I don’t think it’s that important at my level
I played third with a little league glove in HS. It was awesome. Quick to the ball and filthy on the pick and in-between hop. But I believe that when you are good with the hands, the glove does not matter. But I do prefer smaller for middle infielders. Just quicker to the ball.
Is it bad a still use an 11 inch playing SS?? I’ve been amazing with it for the past 7-6 years and have kept in amazing shape. Should I switch or wait till it breaks??
Yes, but there are youth and adult versions of gloves of the same size. I’m not going to get my 10 year old an adult size a2000 12.5” because his hand will be swimming in it
Ok now I’m curious cuz I’m a 12 year old but I’m 6ft tall 150 pounds and play football so this confuses me can some one else please help me here cuz I’m lost
I had a kid on my team (12u) and he was a right fielder and he was a complete and total noob he had never even watched a full game a baseball. Then he shows up to the fist game with a 500$ glove then got mad and quit
rac can you tell me how to fix my glove? It’s so broken in that sometimes I catch it right in the pocket and the ball just pops out. I don’t know how to fix that. I thought I had to just get a new glove
I’m a 11 year old second base men and I have a 11 inch now I am pretty small for my age but most of the kids on my team always say something about how small my glove is. Should I get a bigger size
Bro I wear those sizes my dad used to play baseball so he said those sizes are good for my age but he wears a bigger glove cuz he’s like 50 so he can catch it so ya 😂
