Big swipe
Pros: I play middle infield and this pocket is just perfect before this glove I had a dual core heart of the hide 11.75 and never thought I'd switch but this glove is perfect. It takes about 2 weeks to break in and it looks small at first but stretches a little after play into perfect size. The palm has nice padding not to much or to little and forms perfect to your hand !
Cons: It's a little small but doesn't mean nothing to me
Big swipe again
Pros: Usually I play middle infield but I played 2 games with it at third (highschool ball) and got a couple of shots hit to me, this glove was perfect size which made a easy quik transfer since it's only 11.25. I'd recommend this to a infielder who's looking for a glove with a nice pocket and trying to get a faster transfer. Best glove ever !
Cons: A little small but puts in work !
