In Baseball, the primary players who wear mitts are the catcher and the first baseman. The catcher's mitt is heavily padded to absorb the impact of fast pitches, while the first baseman's mitt is larger and designed to help scoop up throws and field ground balls. Both positions require specialized mitts to enhance their performance on the field.

What if any difference is there between a baseball glove and a baseball mitt. Is it just a different way to say the same thing?

The two terms (glove, mitt) are interchangable but actually define two different types of defensive equipment. The word 'mitt' is short for mitten. When thinking about cold weather gear, mittens don't have individual areas for fingers as do gloves. Therefore, the catcher and the first baseman are the two fielders that wear mitts while all others wear gloves.

What is the safest way to play volleyball?

Many indoor volleyball players wear kneepads to protect knees when they hit the floor to dig a ball. Professional indoor players will also wear ankle braces to prevent spraining. A frequent injury in volleyball occurs when two players jump up at the net and one twists his or her ankle when landing on the other players' foot. Of course, players should wear loose clothing and no jewelry. Assess players' experience before starting a game.
