I would go with a 9 inch or 10 inch glove. Wilson makes a good one:

I got this glove as a present for my friends 4 year old son. It's the perfect size for little hands, but still high quality. Not like the plastic/vinyl gloves you get from the Walmart toy section.
A small size glove
The game of softball was invented in Chicago in 1887 by George Hancock. The idea for the ball came from an old boxing glove.

This depends on the position he plays. If he is a middle infielder (Shortstop or Second Base), you would want to get him a smaller glove to improve transfer of the ball from the glove to his throwing hand - about 9-10 in. If he plays outfield, the his glove should be much bigger to improve catching ability. This is about 11-12 inches. For a first baseman, buy a first baseman's glove (it will say on the tag) that is about 12 inches or longer. Third baseman's gloves should be about 11 inches. A catchers mitt is basically any catcher's mit you can hold up. Pitcher's should be around 10-11 inches with a thick web (pocket). If your player has never played before, he will probably be playing second base or outfield, and for him a large glove is recommended. For the average 13-year-old, a 9-12 inch glove is proper.
