Catchers’ gloves require extra padding to protect hands from powerful pitches aimed toward them, while Pitchers prefer closed web gloves to hide the direction of the pitch from the batter and for added protection from a powerful ball.
Similar to Pitchers, Infielders prefer smaller gloves with additional protection of a closed web, allowing them to scoop the ball, grab it out of their gloves and throw to its destination. Outfielders’ gloves are usually larger with greater catching surface area.

Size and Fit
Try on baseball gloves that you are considering for size and fit and get a feel for them in-store. Your gloves should fit comfortably and allow you to squeeze the glove while holding onto the ball. Their fit should be snug, not tight and not so loose that the gloves need you to hold your hand stiff while playing.
Breaking-in
It takes time for custom gloves to fit comfortably; they must be broken-in by softening the leather and creating a pocket where the ball easily sits.
Talk to any ballplayer and there will be countless recommendations for breaking-in baseball gloves. The most effective way of course, is to get out onto the field and use it. A batting cage is a helpful place to start, practice catching using gloves instead of batting. Mould the glove to your hand and the baseball as it learns to fit your unique shape and grip.
When not in use, store the baseball inside the pocket of the glove and tie the glove closed. Some people even store their glove and ball under their mattress to really help form the pocket.
Maintenance
Regardless of how you break-in your gloves, maintain your them by keeping a ball inside the pocket, conditioning them to protect the leather and prevent it drying out and tighten the laces when required.
