Oct. 31 AJC Men's 60 218 posts | I would have to agree with Wayne, use a plastc finger splint. Slide it on and use surgical tape around it in a couple of places. This will prevent the finger from bending and you can get it in your glove easy enough. Ive also broken the pinky finger on my glove hand and was able to play with the splint. |
Nov. 1 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | A splint makes it hard to grip the bat. Plus it offers no padding. |
Nov. 1 JimmyG Men's 55 52 posts | I agree with Dbax. I have used foam pipe insulation before and it works well due to the cushioning and flexibility. |
Nov. 1 AJC Men's 60 218 posts | Thanks Dbax & Jimmy, i will definitely try that on the next digit i break. Knock on wood... |
