Baseball Glove Thumb Guard Splint

摘要

The Baseball Glove Thumb Guard Splint is designed to support and protect the baseball user's thumb, reducing pain from the shock of impact and flexion of the thumb and thumb joints on the palm side of the thumb while receiving the baseball. It is a slim compact splint that is designed to be inserted into the thumb slot of any baseball glove and attached by interlacing the splint from the two bottom holes of the splint onto the existing lacing of any glove below the hand slot of the glove where the front face meets the back face of the glove and are interwoven together in such a manner that the splint cannot become loose and or lost during play. It also extends the thumbs leveraging ability increasing power to the user's thumb enhancing closure and capture of the baseball. It's slim design allows for less interference and more space in the hand opening of the glove for ease, comfort and efficiency during play.
