I have dug through the forums trying to find this answer and failed to do so. Is there a difference between a baseball 1st base mitt and a softball one? My daughter had her gear stolen a few months ago and has been using a borrowed mitt. We went around trying on gloves and she prefers the way the baseball ones fit to the softball. I recall hearing somewhere that both catchers and 1st base mitts are the only gloves that do not cross over between sports very well due to pocket depth.
