Appropriate glove size for baseball gloves?

Question

ok im 14 years old and i play outfield and second base. im playing fall-ball and high school ball this year. what glove size should i get? im planning to get a glovesmith glove, i just dont know what size. the glove i have right now is 12 inches

Answer 1

12 inches is a pretty good size for infield but a bigger glove in the out field is better for defense

Answer 2

A 12 inch is actually a good size. It's a little bit big for the middle infield, and a bit small for outfield, but if you are comfortable with the fit, 12 in. is a decent enough size for both positions.

Answer 3

Etheir stick with that one or go a half a size bigger.

Answer 4

Stick with twelve inches, its perfect for the switch between your two positions, its great for both.

Answer 5

12 inches is good for freshmen. That's what I had (I graduated this year). Once you make it to your sophomore and junior and senior years depending on the position you play most often will decide your glove. For infield between 11.25-11.75 is good. I'm a pitcher/secondbase men and mine is 11.25 for outfielders it can be between 12-14 or even 15 depending on your preference. Just choose a glove size that feels good to you. Also, if you end up playing both it would be best to have two gloves. One for outfield and the other for infield

Answer 6

Outfield and second are two very different positions. For outfield  you want at least 12.5 inches and for second you only want 11.25-11.5. I would keep your current one for outfield and get a smaller one for 2nd.

Good luck on the season
