Abstract
A combination baseball cap and baseball glove forming an object-catching head covering. A mitt is attached to the crown of the cap preferably above the brim. The mitt can be in the shape of a rectangle, mitten or glove and fabricated from the same material used in making the cap, or from elastic material. An opening along the edge of the mitt is provided above the brim. The opening and the mitt are sized to allow the user to insert one hand into the opening to be held between the mitt and the crown. An elastic band may be attached to the mitt along the edge of the opening to aid in holding the cap in place on the hand. A logo can be place on the outside of the mitt. Padding may be used to further protect the user's hand while catching objects. The padding can be a flat sheet of energy absorbing material or may be shaped to approximate the function of a baseball glove.
