Hello there! My name’s David and I’ve been a baseball coach for the past 9 years.
My career as a baseball player began long ago. Growing up playing baseball and having the opportunity to play at the college level helped me get to where I am today. And as a coach I've learned more than you could ever imagine.
I've seen what does and doesn't work. I know what bats kids love and which gloves they hate.
Now, I'm here to show you every tip and trick in the book to help you maximize your success on and off the field.
But, enough about me! Scroll down below and we'll jump right into it.

Baseball Gloves:
I like to separate baseball gloves by age. Because kids grow so quickly, the right baseball glove for a 4 – 5 year old is VERY different than a baseball glove for a 9 or 10 year old. See below for my top recommendations by age:
Baseball Bats:
In my years playing baseball and years coaching, I’ve gone through and tested a LOT of baseball bats. I like to categorize my picks by age and certification (USA, BBCOR, etc). See below for my picks of the best baseball bats.
Softball Bats & Softball Gloves:
While I grew up playing baseball, baseball has gotten a little too fast for me to play in. Instead I’ve joined a recreational slow-pitch league. That, combined with being the assistant coach for my daughter’s softball team gives me plenty of exposure to softball.
Between my daughter’s experience and my own in slow-pitch, we’ve been able to test a wide variety of softball bats and gloves.
Below are some of my favorite posts.
Baseball/Softball Equipment & Training Aids:
Along with the basic stuff like baseball bats and gloves, I also provide insight on the best equipment that goes with the rest of the sport.
