Why the 12.5" R9 is the Ultimate Utility Tool

The Rawlings R9 12.5-inch glove is built for the player who does it all. The Finger Shift design allows players to shift two fingers into the pinky stall for increased leverage and a deeper pocket—a favorite technique for outfielders and pitchers.

By combining a soft-to-the-touch feel with the structural integrity needed for high-school and travel-ball play, the R9 Series stands out as one of the best values in the game. It’s the ideal upgrade for players moving out of youth-sized equipment into a more serious, adult-style pattern. Shop the full selection at 2nd String Sports to find your perfect fit.
