Number 5

Rawlings Player Preferred Series Basket Web Fielder's Baseball Glove (12.5-Inch)

Rawlings is a name that has been around since I was a kid. My first Baseball Glove was a Rawlings that my uncle used when he played baseball in the army during WWII and while time has passed it by technology wise, that glove will still field a ground ball at second base today. It os no wonder that Rawlings has three gloves on my top 5 list.

This Player Preferred series baseball glove from Rawlings is made for infielders and is for the youth player who is probably early in his or her career and doesn't want to make a large investment in a glove at this time. That said the glove is still high quality and will serve your future allstar well.

Product Description
At 12 ½", the PP125 is a good all-around pattern and crossover glove that can be used for youth fast pitch softball or baseball. It works well at just about any position on the field. Its Flex Loop%u2122 Conventional Back provides for an easy, comfortable fit. The PP125 also features our world famous Basket Web® which provides additional flexibility.

Number 4

Rawlings Heart Of The Hide Trapeze Outfielder's Baseball Glove (12.75-Inch)

For years, Rawlings has led the majors in glove usage. This consistent standard of excellence is due to their leadership in innovative design development. This Heart of the Hide series glove from rawlings is made from top quality cowhide and pro grade lacing. This is a high quality higher priced glove for the more experience player. It's larger size and big pocket make it just right for a rising star outfielder.

Number 3

Easton NE14 Baseball Glove

Everyone knows about Easton baseball bats but did you know that they make baseball gloves too? This glove is from their all new Natural Elite series. This glove is a youth glove offered at an economical price. This glove is a 14" glove meaning it is more suited to an older player who has had an early growth spurt and is best used for the outfield positions. A great glove for a great value.

Includes pro grade laces

Number 2

Easton NE125 Baseball Glove (12.5-Inch)

Number 2 is another Natural Elite baseball glove from Easton. This glove is a 12.5" glove more suited for the outfield for a younger player or could be used as an infielders glove by a larger more mature youth player. For the money, you can't go wrong with either this glove or the previous offering from Easton

Rawlings Player Preferred Series PP130R Baseball Glove (13-Inch)

I really like this glove for use in the outfield. With its deep pocket design, nice solid webbing to hold the ball in on those tough snow cone catches and ability to absorb the power of the ball without sting your hand it is the perfect baseball glove for the young player. For Mom and Dad the good news is that it won't break the bank either.

Product Description
With its 13" pattern, deep pocket, and closed web, this pattern makes it a great glove to be used in the outfield.
