Gold Glove Gamer 12.75 inch Outfield Baseball Glove (GG601G)
This Gold Glove Gamer 12.75 inch glove is Rawlings most popular glove among outfielders. This model features a deep pocket and the Trap-Eze Web pattern, allowing for maximum strength. This glove is referred to as the "six finger" glove due to how the webbing acts to shift the pocket to the center. The Gold Glove Gamer Series utilize pro quality materials and designs including authentic Rawlings Pro Patterns and high-quality US made Pro Grade Laces. These gloves maximize comfort and durability with pro soft leather that allows for a quicker, easier break-in, and full grain finger linings. This glove is game ready with 90% factory break-in.
Trap-Eze Web
The Trap-Eze web, patented by Rawlings in 1959, is the only web which is actually an extension of the glove. Lacing on two sides of the web creates a center that naturally closes around the ball. The Trap-Eze Web is the most popular web among outfielders.Gold Glove Leather
Rawlings’ famous Gold Glove leather is cut from a soft cowhide that enables the glove to break in quickly and easily while still maintaining necessary durability to hold its shape. Tanned at the perfect temperature for just the right amount of time, Gold Glove series ball gloves instantly have a softer, game-ready feel, allowing players to take a Gold Glove Series model straight from the shelf to the field.

Choosing a Glove
PositionGlove Characteristics
Catcher These gloves have no finger channels, with heavy palm padding and overall reinforcements to reduce the sting of repeatedly catching pitchers throws.
Pitcher (Infield) Choose a mid-size glove thats easy to control. Closed and Modified Trap webs work best at this position, letting you disguise your pitches by hiding the ball. First Base (Infield) These gloves also lacks finger channels, but with less padding that a catchers mitt, with added length to help catch infield throws and a shallow pocket, enabling quick ball retrieval.
Second Base (Infield) Choose a smaller glove with a shallow pocket, balancing control with the need to make quick throws.
Short Stop (Infield) Go to a smaller/mid size glove with a shallow pocket for ground balls and quick throws. Third Base (Infield) Choose a medium to large glove with a shallow to mid-size pocket for maximum catching power.
Outfield Choose a longer glove to provide extended reach, with a deep pocket to handle high-lofting balls.
