Infielders tend to use smaller gloves so the can get to the ball faster as well as getting rid of it. Outfielders will use larger gloves (nickname BASKETS) just so they have alittle more range couple inches. Pitchers will have very large glove to hide their grip on the ball. as well as the ball itself to the last fraction of a second. |

Depending on what level you are playing at (ie. in-house, traveling, etc.), the size of your glove may not matter. Generally speaking and level of play aside, infielders want smaller gloves, around 11 inches or smaller. Outfielders usually want the largest glove they can get, somewhere in the range of 12 1/2 - 14. Pitchers do not have specifics like this, but most go with the smaller size since they are considered infielders. Take a look at this glove guide |
