<p>A baseball glove or mitt (1) having an outer shell (3) comprising front (5) and a back (7) plies joined together to form thumb (9) and finger stalls (11a-11d) and a hand-receiving pocket (15). A hand-receiving opening (17) at the bottom of the glove provides entry into the shell. The back ply (7) of the shell in the area between the stalls and the hand-receiving opening is formed for substantially covering the back of the hand of a person wearing the glove, a portion (37) of the back ply in said area having a zone (Z) with a flexibility greater than the remainder of said portion for enabling the glove readily to flex when the hand is flexed to close the glove.</p> |
