For third base, typically, you want a larger infield glove like 11.5 or 11.75. The ball gets on you faster there than shortstop or second, and there are times when as a third baseman, your job is to just knock a ball down, or get a glove on it, so a larger infield glove is more ideal for this.

∙ 13y agoI'm a high school third baseman and I use an 11 1/2 inch glove. I would say 12 inches is the largest you would want to go, and 11 would be fine. 11 1/2 is optimal for someone with a normal sized hand -- they can get the ball out fast enough and the ball shouldn't bounce around inside of it.
Ive played third base my hole life and just recently bought a bigger mitt...12 3/4 and i love it. I guess its just preference.

∙ 13y agoI can't give you the exact size when I haven't been able to measure his hands. Maybe you could e-mail me the measurements and I can suggest some to try. It also depends on the feel and brand. So, I should be able to tell by looking at a pic or something like that.

∙ 13y agoThe position doesn't affect the size glove you need.
A glove size varies depending on your hand the sizes are your hand size.
The size is referring to the part you put your hand inside. If you want to purchase a glove i advise you go to a store and try them on to make sure your hand fits inside. Make sure it fits comfortably. =)

∙ 14y agoAbout a 12in glove will do fine, i use a 14" but i feel it is too big. you have to be able to get the ball out quick, and you dont want the glove so big that you cant close it completly.

A pitcher glove, short stop, 2nd base, 3rd base and outfielders are usally all the same. 1st base and catcher are the only people who shouldn't use a "fielders glove" as most players call it.
The most common glove size for high level 3rd basemen are typcially 11.75in to 12.25in, with 12inch most common. Also, 3rd basemen like h-webs and I-webs.
2nd base...
Definitely not. My friend got kicked out of a little league game when he was 11 for playing 3rd base with a 1st baseman's glove
2nd Base
He is definately the most decorated, and one of the best. It is up for debate whether he is the best ever at 3rd base.
there are 4 bases in baseball 1 st base, 2 nd base, 3rd base, and home plate.
If you hit the baseball inside the 1st or 3rd base line.
there are 4 on a baseball field. 1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, and home plate
3rd base
A field position for a player situated between 2nd base and 3rd base.
The distance across the diamond is 114.6 feet.
