ABSTRACT:
A protective device to protect the palm, index finger and thumb which may be worn inside a conventional baseball or softball glove is provided. The protective device comprises a padded catching panel and flexible back panel which are connected along their margins to form a glove-like arrangement. The index finger, thumb, and palm of the athlete's hand are protected by the catching panel to minimize pain from impact of a baseball, to reduce instances of injuries, and to distribute the impact forces among a greater surface area caused by a ball caught at great velocity.
