In honor of one of the greatest catchers of all time, Wilson has released a Pudge Rodriguez replica of the A2000 Pudge catcher’s mitt which you can get here.
Pudge’s A2000 was a collaboration between Rodriguez and Wilson’s master craftsman Aso. According to Wilson, “With Pudge’s insights, Wilson made a 32.5″ glove with a wider 1/2 Moon Web along with a stiffer thumb and extended palm for increased mobility and durability, as well as reduced rebound.”
It was smaller than a standard MLB catchers mitt at the time, but Pudge’s play quickly made it a huge hit across the MLB and ball fields across the country.
