The Rawlings R9 Series R9SB120FS-18G is a 12-inch fastpitch softball glove designed for select players between 8 and 14 years old. It's a popular choice for pitchers and infielders (second base, shortstop, third base) due to its 12-inch length and closed basket web.

Here's a breakdown of its key features:

  • Material: Made with a soft, durable 100% full-grain leather shell designed to be game-ready quickly.
  • Break-in: It boasts an 80% factory break-in, meaning it requires minimal player break-in before it can be used in a game.
  • Comfort and Fit:
    • Adjustable pull-strap closures: This allows for a custom and secure fit for various hand sizes, a crucial feature for fastpitch players.
    • Padded thumb loop, reinforced palm pad, and finger back liners: These provide impact protection and a soft, comfortable feel.
    • Finger Shift design: This feature is specifically designed for fastpitch players, allowing the pinky and ring finger to be worn in the pinky slot for a more secure and controlled fit.
  • Web Type: Features a Double Laced Basket web, which creates a deep pocket ideal for trapping the ball.
  • Versatility: While often recommended for pitchers due to the closed web, its 12-inch size and quick break-in also make it suitable for various infield positions.
  • Durability: The full-grain leather construction is intended to provide good durability, lasting for several seasons.
