Abstract
This invention presented herein is a hybrid batting and sliding glove that will reduce the number of hand injuries associated with sliding head first into a base in the sports of baseball and softball. There are three key features. The Tendon Feature gently pulls the hand back keeping the fingers off the ground and into a safer position for sliding. The wrist closure feature keeps the wrist from hyperextending. The figure feature component keeps the fingers together.
