All defensive players wear fielding gloves, made of leather or similar material. Gloves have webbing between the thumb and forefinger, known as the "pocket". No part of the glove is allowed to be the same color as that of the ball, including that of its seams. Pitchers are also not allowed to have any white on their gloves including the seams. It is up to the umpire"s discretion if he or she believes that any coloring on the glove interferes with or hinders the batter from seeing the ball clearly. Gloves used in softball are usually larger than the ones used in baseball. No glove larger than 14 in (36 cm) can be used in ASA (American Softball Association) sanctioned play. There are different size gloves for different positions on the field. For example, catchers and 1st baseman have what is called a mitt, whose pockets are larger than Others gloves. The catcher"s glove has extra padding in it and does not have finger holes. The 1st baseman"s glove also has extra padding, but with finger holes. An outfielder"s glove is smaller than the catcher"s, typically 13 inches to 14 inches, but large enough to give extra reach in catching a fly ball. An infielder"s glove is the smallest, typically from 11 inches to 13 inches. Its small size allows faster removal of a caught ball in order to throw with the Others hand. A pitcher"s glove can be of any size, but should be large enough to cover the ball, so that the batter cannot see the pitcher"s grip on the ball.
