Oct. 20, 2008 4x4 Men's 65 601 posts | I used to use one many years ago and loved it... This year I got the Rawlings 13.5" model and it immediately became a favorite at 1st, 3rd, some outfield. I think the 6 finger gives a little deeper pocket due to the cut of the glove and the ball tends to "stick" a little better. I was worried at first that the ball might squirt out at the top of the web on a snow cone but it seems to stay put just fine. I can only think of one ball that was just sizzled that hit the top of the glove that kept going - couldn't tell you if a different web would have caught that one or not. For the outfield you should love it. You see a lot of them now being used in the MLB. Hope that helps, Pete 13 |
