Rawlings R9 12.5" — Dark Brown Basket-Web Utility Glove (Closeout)
Rawlings R9 Fastpitch Softball Glove 12.5" R9SB125-18DB — the 2020 R9 fastpitch utility glove: soft all-leather shell that arrives 80% broken in, padded thumb and palm, pull-strap back, 12.5" pattern with a closed basket web. Closeout pricing on remaining stock.
Description
The R9 is Rawlings' step-up fastpitch glove: a soft, durable all-leather shell that is 80% broken in out of the box, a padded thumb sleeve and palm, a pull-strap back and a hand opening cut for a fastpitch player. It is the glove for the travel-ball player who has outgrown a synthetic and is not ready for a $200 Liberty Advanced.
Dark brown leather shell and palm with white lacing and a brown basket web — the classic-look 2020 R9 fastpitch colorway. Closeout: we have the left-hand throw in stock.

Soft, Durable All-Leather Shell — 80% Broken In
Rawlings picks a leather for the R9 that arrives most of the way broken in. A few games of catch and the pocket is yours; there is no month-long fight with a stiff pro hide.
Padded Thumb Sleeve and Palm
Extra padding where the ball hits — the thumb sleeve and the heel of the palm — so a hard throw stings less, which matters for a younger player still learning to catch it in the pocket.
12.5" Utility Pattern
At 12.5" this is the do-everything fastpitch size: enough length for the outfield, a closed web for the circle, and still quick enough at third or short. If a player is not sure where she will end up, this is the size to buy.
Basket Web
The closed basket web hides the ball from the batter, which is why pitchers and utility players pick it; it also gives an outfielder a deep, secure pocket.
Pull-Strap Back, Fastpitch Fit
The adjustable pull strap and the narrower hand opening are what make this a fastpitch glove and not a small baseball glove: it snugs to the hand instead of flopping.
Who This Glove Is Built For
Best for:
- Fastpitch pitchers and utility players who want a leather glove that is ready to play the week it arrives
- Travel-ball and high-school players stepping up from an entry-level glove
Consider a different glove if:
- You want a premium leather build — see Liberty Advanced in the Rawlings fastpitch collection

FAQ
How much break-in does an R9 need?
Very little. Rawlings ships it 80% broken in; a few sessions of catch and working the pocket with a ball finish the job.
Is this a baseball or a softball glove?
Fastpitch softball. The pocket is cut for the 12" ball and the hand opening is narrower than a baseball glove of the same size.
Is this the right size for my position?
At 12.5" this is the do-everything fastpitch size: enough length for the outfield, a closed web for the circle, and still quick enough at third or short. For other sizes, browse the Rawlings fastpitch collection.
