{"title":"Softballs","description":"\u003cp\u003eSoftballs for fastpitch and slowpitch in 11-inch and 12-inch sizes, from leather and synthetic game balls with raised seams to practice buckets and reduced-impact training balls. Brands include DUDLEY, Rawlings, Champion Sports, Franklin Sports and CHAMPRO, plus Rawlings 10-inch Soft-Dot balls for the youngest players.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSize comes first: 12-inch is standard for adult and older-junior fastpitch and most slowpitch, while younger age groups commonly use 11-inch. Then read the two numbers printed on the ball. COR (coefficient of restitution) shows how lively it is, and compression, quoted in pounds, shows how hard it is: .47 COR with 375 compression is the usual fastpitch specification, while slowpitch leagues set their own, such as .44\/375 or .52\/300. Raised seams give pitchers a better grip; flat seams are common on slowpitch balls. For beginners and indoor hitting, soft-centre and RIF balls take the sting out of mistimed catches. Check which stamp your league asks for before ordering game balls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRelated ranges: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/softball\"\u003esoftball\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fast-pitch-softballs\"\u003efastpitch softballs\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fast-pitch-softball-bats\"\u003efastpitch softball bats\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/baseball-softball\"\u003ebaseball \u0026amp; softball\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/baseballs\"\u003ebaseballs\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/batting-gloves\"\u003ebatting gloves\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"hot-glove-optic-yellow-practice-softballs-pack-of-12-regulation-size-durable-training-balls","title":"Hot Glove Optic Yellow Practice Softballs - Pack of 12, Regulation-Size Durable Training Balls","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHot Glove Optic Yellow Sports Practice Softballs are a pack of 12 regulation-size plastic softballs designed for durable, high-visibility practice and batting drills.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese practice softballs give teams, coaches, and solo players a dependable, brightly colored option for repetitive training and machine work.
