Rawlings | Official League Recreational Use Practice Baseballs | Youth/8U | OLB3 | Bucket | 24 Count

After reading some of the reviews, I was super nervous about buying these but my 10 year old needed to practice his batting. Well...after three months of regularly hitting these balls into a net, theyre holding up perfectly fine. Yes they have some wear and no, theyre not the best balls in the world, but for the price, Im very pleased. Maybe some of the reviewers have older kids who hit much harder, but for my kid, theyre perfect. Ive attached a photo, this is the average wear on these balls after three months....not bad in my opinion.

Great for practice but lacks the real leather which makes gripping the baseball harder to throw accurately

Got it for u8 and planning on using for t baller. Too hard and feels too synthetic. Our ll uses diamond dfx l5. I really liked them and I’ll probably get a dozen of those instead

These do have some rubber to them, not fully “real baseballs”

There is nothing to dislike about these baseballs. We left several out in wet/freezing weather and they haven’t gotten waterlogged and the stitching has held up. I plan on purchasing again this 2022 season.

Good quality

Rawlings makes great baseball equipment. I have used there baseball products for over 30 years. Their baseballs are the best which is way they are used in the MLB.

My wife and I purchased this gift for our 8 year olds birthday and he absolutely loved and loves it. The smile on his face when he saw a bucket of 24 Wralings baseballs was priceless and the balls seem great. Weve already dug into a few balls and they are holding up very well. For this review: Pros: a bucket of great baseballs. A great presentation...in an awesome bucket! A perfect gift for any child who likes baseball and who is aged maybe 7-12. Quick and speedy delivery (Amazon is great, as always). Awesome packaging and a reasonable price. We absolutely recommend this product. Cons: Cant think any expect that if you are like me, you might want to open the bucket and toss a few balls around before you give it to your child because it is just a great presentation of 24 baseballs! My wife had to keep me from opening it when it arrived ;) Awesome product.

Decent practice baseballs, they are the synthetic leather that feels like plastic. I use them for tee drills and BP, they have held up ok. They were cheap so I don’t care if they get beat up during BP. I would not use them for bullpen sessions or fungo.

Best value for the money
