Nike Show Elite Batting Glove


Nike is another brand of batting gloves that I think makes a quality product. The "Nike Show Elite" batting glove offers extensive comfort and protection. It's necessary to have as much grip as possible when swinging a baseball bat, and the "Nike Show Elite" is a great glove for this.


There are many brands out there to use, but Nike is definitely one of the top brands to get.


This pair of batting gloves costs $35-$40.


Colors: Black/White, Royal/White, Navy/White, Red/White

Wilson WTA5450 Sleek Adult Batting Helmet


This Wilson Batting helmet offers complete protection and comfort for the batter. I've been using this helmet for 4 years now, and I have no complaints.

The batting helmet has holes strategically placed in it to let air in. It allows the runner to stay cooler when hitting. This is a fairly new feature on the helmet. The indentions and holes give the helmet a sleek aerodynamic look.

The helmet comes in black, navy, royal, and scarlet.

It costs $20-$25.

Wilson A2000 Catcher's Mitt


The Wilson A2000 Catcher's mitt is one of the best mitts I've ever caught with. At a comfortable 33 1/2 inches, it's the perfect size for maximum comfort and durability.

At the college level of play, a pro mitt is needed to be successful. The Wilson A2000 breaks in great, and will last. I've found that applying glove oil a few times a week in the pocket helps this mitt stay soft and keeps the leather treated.
I definitely recommend the Wilson A2000 Catcher's Mitt for a upper level catcher that wants a good solid mitt.
This particular mitt costs $150-$200

Academa Wood Bats

During the off season, my baseball team uses wood bats to increase hitting skill.

Wood bats are great for hitting off a tee, taking batting practice, or hitting soft toss. The Academa wood bat is a great tool to use for this.

There are two specific bats I recommend:




<-Akadema A581 Elite Professional Grade Wood Bat




Akadema Super Bat Elite Professional Grade Wood Bat ->




The A581 Elite wood bat is made of Ash, and is very durable. This bat hits solid and stays true for hundreds of swings.


The Super Bat Elite wood bat is a Maple bat. The maple gives the bat a lighter feel with the same durability and pop as the Ash bat.


Both bats are great for hitting baseball. I've used both models and recommend either one for the baseball player wanting to improve hitting.
