As soon as somebody like Ronald Acuña Jr. puts this sleeve on, it makes him seem faster. And if you’re on defense, you better watch him closely because he’s got the “green light.” And if he’s doesn’t, then he should have to take it off and give it to somebody who does.
Available at Dick’s just like Ronald’s for $50.
And if you’re wondering, the sliding mitt is for head-first sliders, and it offers an overall protection from scrapes, cleats, jammed fingers, wrist and thumb injury. Acuña Jr. wears it on his left hand only because he’ll most likely be sliding to the outside of the bag and extending to touch/hold it with his left hand.
I really love this sliding mitt I got two of them from dicks and they are really comfortable but they don’t have the finger hole so you have to keep your thumb inside the mitt
