The bottom photos show webbings typical of a glove used by an outfielder. It's not so much the style of glove or webbing but the size that's important. Infielders, particularly mid-infielders usually use a smaller glove so the ball doesn't get "lost" in it while fielding ground balls or turning DP's.

They are both 11.5 inches. Is it alright to use that bottom glove as a mid-infielder.

both patterns are very common in infield gloves so there both good to use. Outfield gloves will usually have the H syle web while infield gloves the the one in your picture will have and I style web, both petterns would word well for middle infield.

If they are both 11.5 and under, they both are fine. Why the TPX?

Take a look at Pinckard gloves and Kelley Gloves. You wont be sorry.

Whats so good about Pinckard and kelley gloves? Why dont you recommend a TPX? I have had a TPX for 5 years so far and I love it, but thats really the only glove ive ever had. Tbats why im leaning toward a TPX..

If you play mainly 2B or SS, I would look at an 11 1/4 for both or an 11" if used just for 2B. If you play a little 3B as well, I might get the 11 1/2.

Go with the bottom glove. By the way... if your going to get a tpx pro. U might as well get a pro flair. There really great gloves.

In my opinion the Heart of the Hide gloves are the best out, I have one and I love it; best glove I've ever had.
