Our 3B was reluctant to hand over her glove, and looked like she might cry when I took my first few whacks at it. She's a happy camper now. She's also thrilled about the magical finger-shift I showed her...after the "it feels weird" phase.
Yeah, we have a catcher who is just awesome, we have 2 solid "A" catchers, the first one I referred to is a hitting machine so when it's not her turn to catch, we've started playing her in the outfield. We just ordered her a Rawlings PRO303-CTB full trap glove from Don Morton's, a real mans glove! I showed her how to use the glove two in the pinky (TIP) and she was surprised at how easy she could close her new glove and how that glove just swallowed a 12" ball. Within an hour she was converted.
