The pocket is located at the web and the center of the catching surface. Designed for second base, with a deep pocket that is pinched with the thumb and ring finger. It's a model specialized for catching. There was a patch sewn on the inside, which I think will help reduce pain. Overall, there is little wear and tear, and it's a glove with little signs of use. Please comment if you have any questions or would like to negotiate the price.
