ABSTRACT:
A pair of protective plates are releasably secured to the back side of a glove. One plate covers the back of the hand and the other plate covers the lower portions of the fingers. The two plates are spaced apart to allow freedom of movement of the knuckles at the base of the fingers, but the plates are spaced sufficiently close to each other to protect these knuckles. When used with a batter's glove the plates conform to the curved configuration of the hands while gripping a bat, and the plates are configured so as to prevent interference between them when the bat is swung. For other uses, such as motorcross, the plates have a slightly different configuration.
