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

Perfect for practice.

perfect

My grandson is very pleased

Overall, a good practice ball for 8U for the price. I was able to buy it at $39.99 or $1.67 per ball. Great deal at that price. Its not real leather, so it does scuff easier and is softer than real leather baseballs and gets a little slick. I would use this for pitching practice. But its a great general ball for fielding and works well in machines. Good buy for general practice balls for younger teams.

We bought these to practice hitting and catching with our son. It’s a great price per ball and love that it comes with the bucket to put them in

I am not the typical person to complain about a product. I researched this product and read many complaints about these being cheap balls and falling apart. I thought to myself, Yeah Right, they are baseballs they are not just going to fall apart. I have used these balls for the past for weeks, with my three children: my son is 12 and plays little league baseball and middle school baseball, my daughter is 11 and plays park and rec softball and middle school softball, and my other daughter is 9 and plays little league baseball. We only practice on the weekend, one day, for about 2 hours (cause they are always at practice and games any other time). Already, after 4 uses, half of the balls in the bucket are damaged. By damage I mean, the outer synthetic plastic covering is torn, missing a piece, bunched up, bubbled, or the threading is tear away. This balls are at a cheap price, because they are really actually cheaply made. I will never by a synthetic ball again, Ill invest the extra money next time on some real leather balls or actual baseballs. These balls were so bad, I told myself that I have to take the time to write a review so other people know how bad they actually are. My children and I would highly recommend buying another ball, you will be disappointed with these. Thank you for your time!

I purchase a bucket of balls for my son to practice with. The balls are really nice, and for the price I dont think you can find anything better.

Best value for the money

Well I guess I was confused as to what I was ordering, because buying 2 dozen in a bucket (this product) is not the same as buying the 1 dozen. The one dozen is actually leather baseballs, and this product is the synthetic (plastic) covered ball. I should have paid more attention to what product I was ordering, so for what I got I guess that this is actually a fair price and quality. But for what I THOUGHT I was getting, this is no where near. I am a high school baseball coach so I am looking at getting balls for cage work and field/game use. I am looking to buy them in bulk so I am always shopping for the best price. Since these balls were the cheapest I instinctively went for these without looking at all the details. The silver lining is that I only ordered this one bucket and I can still use these for soft-toss and tee work, so not a total loss. Again, this was my fault, but just know that this bucket of 2 dozen balls ARE NOT REAL BASEBALLS (leather), they are plastic.

Great product! Arrived on time and in perfect condition.
