TL;DR While the discussions did not directly address specific baseball cleats, here are some general considerations: prioritize comfort, fit, and durability. Popular brands include Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour.
Comfort and Fit
When selecting baseball cleats, comfort and fit are paramount. Ill-fitting cleats can lead to discomfort and even injury over time. It's essential to try on different sizes and styles to find what feels best for your feet. Consider looking for cleats with good cushioning and support, especially if you play frequently or for extended periods.
Durability
Durability is another critical factor when choosing baseball cleats. You want a pair that can withstand the rigors of the game and last throughout the season. Look for cleats made from high-quality materials that offer good traction and stability on the field.
Brand Recommendations
While the discussions did not mention specific cleat models, well-known brands such as Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour are popular among players for their quality and performance. Each brand offers a range of options catering to different needs and preferences, so exploring these brands could be a good starting point.
Additional Considerations
If you're playing on different surfaces, consider whether you need metal, molded, or turf cleats. Metal cleats provide excellent grip on grass fields but may not be suitable for all leagues. Molded cleats are versatile and often more comfortable, while turf shoes are ideal for artificial surfaces.
Have some sympathy for Bret guys, Triple H ended his WWE career and Goldberg ended his WCW career! He has every right to say what he wants!
When in doubt, bury that bitch
Please, this is the Hitman we're talking about.
Let me tell you something about Paul “Triple H” Laveck. Everybody talks about Paul “Triple H” Laveck, well there’s one guy that can beat Paul “Triple H” Laveck and it’s me
He prefers to just be called “Triple H”
Heh. Tell him to say to my face. Say it to my face, PAUL “TRIPLE H” LAVECK.

There were some unexpected and some very expected wins but it was so interesting looking through all the comments and finding out new comics and new fun facts about Batman's comic book history, some of the reasons i made this poll was to highlight some underrated comics, to see what the sub's overrall thoughts were about things like which Batman comic was Worst or Weirdest etc..., and to have some general answers to the questions that keep getting asked a lot on here especially by new comers. So i hope this was insightful to you guys as much as it was for me, and apologies for the previous crowded layout i tried better on this new one :)

Well it was fun guys, i'm gonna go play Lego Batman 3 now. See ya.
This was cool. Great idea. Gave me some new stuff to read.
glad you changed the last category to "best ending". the "where it should've ended" story literally coming out before year one would've been a weird touch 😭
I’d argue that if you’re gonna stay in main continuity, then Batman Endgame is the best story to end at.
I've tried to get a copy of the article that I can post here because of the paywall, but I can't find it. If anyone has a copy, please feel free to post.
Sounds like someone slid headfirst into Cooperstown on a bad bet (I don't know anything about baseball)
Are these fields/stadiums specifically just for Baseball btw, not counting multi-purpose fields/stadiums in which other outdoor sports are being played like soccer/football, lacrosse, softball, etc?
It's everything. Look at the massive, mighty Copenhagen Baseball Field in this wide angle (to capure all of its clory) satellite shot on Google Maps.
I drive by every day, and I didn't even know it was there.
Who needs second base anyway
Japan loving baseball ain't no shocker but Europe stepping up their game is wild props to 'em
Amazing baseball field (we are talking about balkans)
Regarding croatia.
There is also field in Varaždin. And the field in Split is actually a rugby field but the baseball team uses it also. Makes for some wacky dimensions. Also rugby goal poasts tend to be a little distraction for outfileders.

Here is the abomination i was talking about. Left hand sluggers need about 60 meters to clear the wall. Its a big fence but still lota of lazy flyout tend to go for homerun.
And hitting ball to dead center field if you are a speedy guy is pretty much always inside the park homerun.
Currently there is only a big growth in the UK. I mainly contribute to the MLB UK games and everything that happened with that event.
Just curious though, are those images/videos in your provided link from the same Baseball field btw? Cause there are some images there in which the Baseball field is clean and well-maintained, while the other videos there shows the field in a bad shape or very poorly maintained and can't be recognized as a Baseball field at all.
Based on the one in my city, this is very generous with the word ‘stadium’. Some will be just baseball fields.
definitely just fields. I checked Dublin and there are in fact 4 fields. One of which is just two patches of dirt for a pitcher's mound and home plate. No sign of bases.
If one Japanese baseball fan is building all of them I'm still impressed
You guys take what physically exhausted, media trained baseball players say in the 20 minutes that they are required to talk to the media very, very, very, seriously
folks, pete can't say "We are fucking up but I do believe that we have the talent to play better, but tbh half the time we have no idea why things go well or poorly on a given day, they just do" and then fuck off to the locker room
This.
They have to talk to media, so he has to say something. And nothing he says here will change their record or how past games went.
Plus, we all saw how good vibes carried the team last year. I don’t blame Pete for trying to stay positive; what use is being a doomer?
Anytime one of your star players says this you know the team is capital F Fucked lol
They had their absolute peak as an offense and went 11-17. The schedule is tough the rest of the way. This…doesn’t look good.
This team’s problem is how good they think they are. Fuckin prove it already
This is a good point. Think about 2007 after a phenomenal 06 they thought they were owed a playoff spot. Same mentality. Last year's Mets team had something to prove. This year they're just complacent thinking their owed a spot because of how good they are on paper.
There's no right thing to say when your team is losing. At the end of the day, I'd rather the guys have this attitude than a defeated one.
Wanted to share a little as I wasnt able to find too much info on these before purchssing.
I bit the bullet. I just got back into playing (2 games this year but will finish out the summer season) and wanted to pick up some gear to use for future seasons. I have a shoe habit and when I saw these debut at the all star game worn by Aaron judge I was instantly drawn towards them.
First impressions: I was very unsure on how this would be using a iconic basketball sneaker as a cleat, but nike has done an incredible job putting this styling into a solid baseball platform. These fit incredibly well and feel like a high performance cleat should. Loads of support and cushioning and top quality material and craftsmanship.
Sizing: I did also try on the jordan 1 cleats but they felt like they had a lot less cushioning and padding, as well the jordan 1s felt more narrow which surprised me.
I wear a 12.5 in a normal shoes but for traditional jordan sneakers I opt for a size 12. I found this to be no different, seeking a snug fit the 12 was a Cinderella fit for me. As someone with a wide foot ive always felt like cleats were far to narrow for my foot type. However these are an exception. They are by far the comfiest cleat ive worn in any sport so far. I wasn't able to find a 12.5 to try on but I feel like these will be true to size. Being I get 12 in jordan sneakers, and 12 was perfect in jordans cleats. But I would deffinitely try some on in person before ordering online for any sports gear.
My only draw back was they were ridiculously expensive for a pair of ball cleats. 1/3 more than the jordan 1's... but it feels like you are getting a high performance cleat. I am very curious to see how these hold up for wear out on the diamond but I have full confidence I will get a lot of use out of these.
When I saw these jordan cleats come out at the pro level in golf football and baseball, I was shocked that players would be wearing a outdated shoe that debuted in the late 80s. However upon seeing and wearing these, I was blown away by the perfomance quality. Nike has done an incredible job with adapting its iconic designs into modern day high end cleats.
I will also include some pictures of them next to the same size sneaker. It shows how the cleats are a bit narrower and have a much sportier shape to them over their traditional basketball shoe.
I play with extra deep studded football cleats.
Deep would be nice. I wish more leagues allowed metal spikes. Sure these will be a lot better than slipping in the field in running shoes like I have been prior.
My cleats are metal tipped but round and dull. Metal baseball cleats are sharp.
After playing with spikes for so long having to switch to molded has me slipping all over lol the difference in traction is nuts for me at least
I got the 11 cleats and they suck.
Ah but hey at least they be styling 😅 form > function
These are so clean looking. I have Jordan 1 and Jordan 3 cleats and love them both.
I have the mid top jordan 1's, and I like them a lot. Definitely more comfortable than I thought they would be.
I have the Black Cement 3 cleats I play in.
What do you use for the color. It’s beautiful
Nice clean work!
Since it’s a cheapie, I use the Mizuno when it’s wet or in the rain. I rotate between the other 3 but mainly use the 44. Outfield.
Still want to try out a Wilson but it might have to wait. Or should I just stick with Rawlings
The New Balance glove looks like a cleat
They're his dad cleats
Are you selling these?
Yeah man. Dude said he was considering Wilson outfield gloves, and I have those two 12.75. One is an 1810 and the other a 1799. The Grace glove is 12.5. They're all new. Price is shipped.
What type of mizuno is that?
Mizuno MVP Prime 12.75”, used an Amazon gift card from work to get it a few years ago.
How’s it holding up now? Is it still stiff? Or floppy? I’m 40yo…play slow pitch softball…I have an old a2000 from college. I can’t justify spending a ton on a glove like that again. I also want a glove that won’t be a floppy piece of leather…I’m trying to find a happy medium…
Also, does it have a deep pocket?
I really dig that 44. Is that the snakeskin on the website? How does it hold up and feel? Been looking into getting a 44 but i haven’t seen many of them.
yes, that's the black snakeskin and the fingerpad is the cotton candy snakeskin. it's holding up pretty good, i use it about 3x weekly. it feels great. there's an option to select how much breaking in you want when you order; i chose the max.
Trying to talk myself out of a new glove. Pics of a few of my favorite first base at better gloves
Better baseball!
Beautiful storefront! Didn’t know they had one.
To everyone asking it’s better baseball in ATL
Correct, I meant to say that but clearly said better gloves 😂🤦
This wall of gloves is BS and completely discriminatory against us South Paws!
/s
This place has an entire lefty wall 😂 no searching through to find one!
If you’re there in January, pretty much all the gloves are lefty. Well, at least the softball ones.
I need to see that Pic.
They have an entire LH wall and the best LH selection in the world sooooo…
Is this heaven?
Better Baseball in Marietta GA. Such and awesome place. My kids love going there. I live about 30 minutes from it.
All in excellent condition. Pretty much brand new other than being on my hand a few times.
1 and 4 would make a great outfield infield combo
Sweet gloves
1, 3, 6
Interested or just ranking them?
I misread.. i thought you were trying to choose.
Anyone want lefty pitcher and outfield Mizuno pros, I have them!
