Catcher's gloves are called "mitts" because they lack individual fingers. Larger than standard baseball gloves, catcher's mitts contain a large pocket for catching pitches and receiving throws to get a batter out. Designed with extra padding and a hinged, claw-like shape, the catcher's mitt helps funnell 90+-mile-per-hour fastballs into the pocket. The large design also provides a good target for pitchers.
Catcher's mitts are divided into youth and adult. Unlike other baseball gloves, catcher's mitts are measured in circumference. The circumference of a youth catcher's mitt is 31 inches or less while the circumference of an adult catchers mitt is 32 inches or larger. Hand size is not as relevant as it is with other gloves. A catcher's mitt can mold to any size hand.
Be sure to take pocket size into account. Skilled players should use a smaller pocket for grabbing the ball faster and throwing out a runner stealing a base. A beginner or less skilled player should use a bigger pocket to make it easier to catch and hold onto the ball.
