I'll do you one better, here is a pic with the GGE11V (baseball) and the GGE50FPV (fastpitch) side by side with a softball in each. My daughter has her gamer glove with her so this is the brand new back-up pictured and this is my son's that still needs some break-in.
On the left GGE50FPV and on the right GGE11V:
Although, the baseball glove is somewhat broken in for a baseball, I think you can see that the pocket is quite a bit smaller on the GGE11V baseball glove in comparison to the GGE50FPV softball glove.
HTH

Thanks a ton ez! Man that 50 looks like a punch bowl, two very good looking gloves! What age is your son, and what size would your consider the hand and finger stall size on the GGE11, small, snug, medium sized? Pocket looks like it would form perfectly for a 12” softball, thanks again!
Edit: That tan and the tan laces look great, old school!

Punch bowl...LOL. My son is 12 and daughter is almost 16.
Now take the rest for what it's worth because I haven't really rammed my fat hand/fingers all the way into either glove. IMO Mizuno didn't lie when they said the GGE50FPV was tailored for a smaller female hand as the GGE11V finger stalls are significantly larger. I can get my hand and fingers started into the GGE11V glove with some wiggle room. With the same amount of finesse I can't really get much of any of my hand and fingers into the GGE50FPV. So, again without being too technical I can feel a significant difference between the 2 gloves. If I wanted a new glove, I'm certain I could get my hand all the way into the GGE11V and use it myself without any problems... the GGE50FPV I'm not sure that would be the case.
BTW we did re-lace the wrist strap on the GGE11V to tighten it up for my son.

BTW sorry to the OP for making this thread run a little sideways. LOL 
Totally agree with this -- DD #1 has a 12.5 global elite that she also loves. I don't have particularly large hands but I can't even put it on. DD#2 has a Rawlings liberty advanced (also a nice glove) and I don't have any problem getting my hand in it.
