Abstract

A baseball glove or mitt having an outer shell comprising front and a back plies joined together to form thumb and finger stalls and a hand-receiving pocket. A hand-receiving opening at the bottom of the glove provides entry into the shell. The back ply 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 of the back ply in said area having a zone 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.
