Baseball Gloves

Baseball gloves come in different styles and shapes. You need to figure out which style of baseball gloves is the right one for your game. The baseball gloves over the years largely haven’t changed all that much. Baseball gloves over the years were for the most part coming in about the same style.

In 1952, there was only one 20-plus game winner with baseball gloves in the National League. That 20-game winner turned into one of the finest sustained pitching performances of modern times. Robin Roberts of the Philadelphia Phillies not only clocked his third straight season of 20 or more victories, but this time climbed all the way to 28-7, running up the highest win total in the league since Dizzy Dean had won that many for the Cardinals in 1935. Robers pitched 330 innings.

While Roberts was working through a season of almost unbroken success, Stan Musial continued his own high-caliber consistency, winning his third straight batting title and sixth overall with a .336 batting average. Home run honors were divided between Chicago’s Hank Sauer and Pittsburgh’s Ralph Kiner, each with 37 when the season ended. Not even Babe Ruth had ever done that. For single-inning outbursts, there was nothing to compare with what happened in the bottom of the first inning at Ebbets Field on the night of May 21. After retiring the Cincinnati Reds quietly in the top of the inning, the Dodgers spent the better part of the next two hours circling the bases and dispatching Cincinnati pitchers. By the time that first inning was completed, the Dodgers had scored 15 runs on their way to an eventual 19-2 victory.

That first inning went on for so long that the Reds’ starting pitcher, Ewell Blackwell, quickly kayoed, took a shower, dressed, and hailed a cab back to his Manhattan hotel. He walked into the lounge, took a seat at the bar, morosely glanced up at the television, and asked the bartender what inning it was. He was told it was the bottom of the first. The other side of the fiasco was the near perfection of Brooklyn’s Carl Erskine on June 19. The classy, curve-balling Dodger right-handed no-hit the Cubs, his performance marred only by the base on balls he issued in the third inning to the Chicago starter Willard Ramsdell. When you choose your baseball glove, do so wisely.
