Why You Need a Sliding Mitt

Why You Need a Sliding Mitt

[FlannelPanel.]

I have no problem with people wanting to use these, but some kids are absolutely obsessed with sliding mitts because they’re trendy right now

You don’t NEED one of these.
The game has been going on much longer than that mit

I lost feeling in my hand for the last part of my senior high school season cause I dove back to first and the first baseman landed on my hand

I played in the 90’s at very high levels. I can assure you this is not a necessity. It’s just another accessory for all you spice boys.

[brucemillard]

eventually the game is gonna have "ghost men" on bases, i swear😂

After more than 150 years of baseball and now gen z needs sliding mitts

[kelliehoward]

You should do custom Bruce bolt batting gloves

Would definitely wear one, just had a teammate dive back to second and end up with 2 fingers going the wrong way. Didn’t look fun, nor would I want to miss any time. Just a precaution

Any way here is a brownie recipe


Ingredients:
2 cups white sugar
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter, melted
4 eggs
½ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking powder

directions :
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan.

Mix sugar, flour, melted butter, eggs, cocoa powder, vanilla, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl until combined. Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Decorate with walnut halves.

Bake in the preheated oven until top is dry and edges have started to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 20 to 30 minutes; cool before slicing into squares.

Enjoy

My daughter recently broke her finger getting stepped on didn’t cry or get rushed to the hospital till after the game she did sit out but was more concerned if she was safe!

Everyone saying a sliding mitt is for softies I have a broken wrist and played a full season on it. I’m getting surgery in 2 days because it won’t heal. So yeah I think it’s okay for me to use a sliding mitt to protect my wrist

I'm a tough sob, but it's the only equipment I use in my league. I guess I don't want anything to happen to my fingers because I'm a truck driver

[Gabes_Shadow]

As a catcher I always slide feet first when ever I’m stealing a bag but diving back has gotten a few close calls😅

[Noctuavida]

I have a muff diving mitt. Meow my hand doesn’t get cramped when muff-diving.

Its more about "drip" than anything else. Curious how long they are allowed to be... shortens the base paths nicely!

My friend got hit in the head and had a concussion in 3rd grade playing little league while batting. Finished the inning before going to the hospital. This was 7 years ago

[misterpi.]

How come you don’t wear two sliding mitts? Depending on where the tag is coming from, you could be sliding with the base on your left side.

[VictoryVibesYT]

Yeah but man the thumb out is killing me right now if it’s to protect your fingers why do you have a finger out?

[Chipandcheese]

One question, why do sliding mitts cover every finger but your thumb?

[sicalyreynolds]

One of my friends dove into home this season, it was like our third game and the catcher jumped on her hand and broke it in two spots, two years ago she broke her ankle sliding into third which is why she didn’t slide, let’s just say she might not play anymore
