    Catchers mitt for big hands??

    Tried on a GXS58 yesterday. It'll fit a big hand for sure. It's weird because most Mizuno fastpitch gloves/mitts are tight on me and I don't have large hands. The Rawlings Liberty Advanced I bought definitely won't accept the same size hand the GXS58 will.

    Little League pitcher substitution/re-entry

    Little League minors game last night. My daughter started at SS then pitched innings 2-3. She then played SS for the 4th and the coach tried to put her back in at pitcher for the last inning. The umpire wouldn't let her re-enter at pitcher. Then a "discussion" on the infield takes place...

    Busted CF8 Tonight

    If a bat is going to break,thats way cooler than just cracking one.

    Louisville Slugger warranty turnaround time?

    Its funny the difference in care given to a purchased bat and a warranty bat. The bat I purchased from Demarini's website came bubble wrapped in a nice fitting box that's was taped up enough to survive a trip to the moon and back. It took me 5 minutes to break into it...lol The warranty bat...

    Louisville Slugger warranty turnaround time?

    My daughter's replacement bat will be here today. 7 business days from the day they received it. Their communication is a bit lacking, but overall they did a pretty good job.

    Catcher Gear Recommendation/Reviews?

    My 10u daughter wears All-Star gear. Vela chest protector and shin guards. System 7 helmet. She tried on a ton of gear and most didn't fit very well. It took some looking,but we found the chest protector and shin guards marked down online.

    Louisville Slugger warranty turnaround time?

    My daughter is in the exact same position. Her bat arrived in Hillsboro 3-23. They said 7-10 business days to have a replacement in hand. I got an email update yesterday with another generic 7-10 business day response. We'd like to have my daughter's bat by Friday,but we're kind of doubtful...

    Cracked CF6 Sprite

    Last night while packing up to head to practice,I noticed my 10u daughter's first "real" bat was cracked. Over the last couple weeks it seemed at though some balls weren't coming off her bat with as much authority as they normally do. I have no idea when it actually cracked,or if it had...

    The Auburn Hop

    The coach of my 10u daughter's Little League team had the girls hopping at the first practice. Some of these girls can hardly walk across the diamond without tripping over their own feet. I'm not sure adding more movement is a good thing in this situation.

    Where to buy softballs?

    Wal-mart sells a 4 pack of Worth balls for $10. They aren't top tier balls,but they've been pretty good.

    practice pant recommendation?

    My daughter has been wearing Easton baseball pants. They're like $10 at Sports Authority. They don't seem much different than the $27 Intensitys

    10u bat sizes

    My DD turned 10 a month ago. She is 4'9" and weighs about 85lbs. She is currently swinging a 31/20 CF6. He coaches think she'd benefit from a 31/21. I've been dragging my feet because I really don't feel like buying another bat...lol I'll probably end up getting her a 31/21 before Little...

    Size Glove for 8U

    I'm actually surprised my DD likes the Worth Shut-out. She thought all the Worth gloves she tried were heavy for their size. I think it boiled down to her very specific color/style opinions.

    Size Glove for 8U

    My 10 year old started with this model at 7. http://www.amazon.com/Rawlings-FP115-11-5-Inch-Pitch-Softball/dp/B016V4KNY6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1455078498&sr=8-1&keywords=rawlings+fp115 I finally replaced it with a 12" Worth Shut Out a couple weeks ago.

    Question about new glove for 10u travel player

    No reason a 12" glove can't work for a 12" ball. My 10u daughter catches a 12" ball just fine with an 11.5" glove. I think I'd be inclined to get a quality 12" glove if you have time to get it broken in before game use.
