I know nothing about baseball.

Allie wants to get H a baseball glove for his birthday. She likes throwing ball with H and she has a glove. Now I am trying to figure out what brand, size, shape, position, hand, etc glove to buy. Why does she do this to me? lol

Anyone have a clue about what to buy? He is right handed with everything. Does he need a left handed glove?

If he throws right-handed then yes, a left-handed glove is what you'd want.

Find out what hand he throws with and then let the dude at teh store help you with everything else.

Left had glove, infielders glove is probably fine for playing catch. Just go to Dicks and they will help you.

If he's right handed, then he needs a glove for his left hand (although it is actually a right handed glove, because the right handed part refers to which hand you throw with). I second an infielders glove, if it is just going to be used for catch. I wouldn't worry about the brand, but look for a glove that the leather is softer (easier to squeeze) because it will require less "breaking in." I recommend trying the glove on and seeing how easy it is to squeeze. Other than that I usually pick out my glove based on price.
