Mizuno Ball Glove Pounding Pad

A gamer needs a real pocket, and this Mizuno Ball Glove Pounding Pad is the tool that builds one. Shaped to mimic the impact of a baseball landing in the glove, the pad lets players and coaches pound out a deep, defined pocket during break-in and re-shape a glove that has flattened out over a long season. It's a staple of a proper break-in routine, faster and more controlled than simply playing catch, and far easier on the hands than pounding with a bare ball. The result is a consistent, game-ready pocket in less time.

Key features & specs:

• Purpose-built pad for forming and maintaining the glove pocket
• Mimics ball impact to shape a deep, consistent pocket
• Speeds professional-style break-in on new baseball and softball gloves
• Re-shapes gloves that have lost their pocket over time
• Comfortable to grip for repeated, targeted pounding
• Mizuno Style #370128

Coach's tip: condition the glove first, then work the pad into the pocket while the leather is soft and pliable for the best shape. Wipe the pad clean and store it dry between uses.
