ABSTRACT:
A cushion for absorbing impacts from baseballs and the like. The cushion is worn beneath a glove, and comprises a base panel fabricated from leather and an absorbent panel fabricated from foam rubber. That portion formed by foam rubber overlies the upper palm of the user's hand. The leather panel extends over one finger just sufficiently far to support a band encircling that finger. The band immobilizes the cushion when worn. The band is an open loop closed by hook and loop material, thereby enabling adjustment of the circumference of the band when closed. The leather panel extends laterally to the side of the palm at which point a tether is attached. The tether retains the novel cushion together with a particular glove.
