    Have your daughter work on her receiving technique also. Catching shouldn't hurt

    Best Ideas for breaking in new glove quickly

    No water, oils, or creams on leather. Heat has near zero effect on leather. Ovens are fine to warm leather to accept conditioner. Break in the hinges only and play catch

    Know a pitcher who threw mostly change ups?

    Both of my girls throw a lot of changeups. Sometimes as many as 70%. If you can't hit it you'll be guaranteed to see more. They range from very low 40s to mid 50s. It makes their fastballs look like bolts of lightning

    Team Financial Disclosures

    A timely post. I just started my first team a few months ago. Everything is transparent. Otherwise someone will have questions. The coach should buy their own personal gear anyway

    40% Code Wilson Outlet

    I'll do my best here. Luckily I'm waiting on a plane. Chrome tanning rules the roost in athletic equipment as well as most mass produced finished goods. Any vibrant colors even blacks can and are chrome tanned. It's done this way because it's cheap and easy. A fresh hide comes in one door and...

    Just curious are to why then padding was so dark inside on a new glove. If it's new I would sent it back for another There's no such thing as undyed or uncolored leather in finished goods or lacing. It's either dyed darker or painted lighter. Nothing is stronger or weaker. Dyed leather will...

    Outfield Glove for Player With Small Hands

    All right except for the heifer part. Heifers have not given birth, so their belly skin is not stretched. Cowhides can literally be from any cow. There's no designation. Steer hides come from neutered bulls because that's what America eats. Kip leather is gloves is mostly calfskin. It can...

    Move in Day

    Separation anxiety is real. My girls jump out of the nest next year and I'm already dreading it. They're flying out of town this weekend and I have commitments so I can't go. It's tough

    Athletes United Easton Bats

    I can't go into details but it the one piece will be available next year. From what I was told it was supposed to be released before Christmas but Corona messed it up. Take it for what it's worth Representation is only about money. That's it. Since you don't see Louisville, Wilson, demarini...
