Glove Story: Kevin Kiermaier Goes Platinum

Platinum Glove winner Kevin Kiermaier's ride to baseball excellence was unexpected, even to Kiermaier himself. In this extended interview, we discuss everything from his journey to the Bigs, his nickname "Outlaw," and as a centerfielder myself, I couldn't help but pick Kiermaier's brain on the advanced techniques of the best outfielder in baseball.

Do a switch pitcher like pat venditte for the Toronto blue jays

[@jorgez9402]

No homo Kevin is one good looking dude.

[@tylerprock2483]

Been following you since my the beginning. Awesome interview, high quality vid and raw content. Keep up the good work Mike!

[@WhatProsWear]

Tyler Prock thanks Tyler. I know you have. There's a few names that I have seen since day 1 and you are one of them. Thanks a lot for the support brother.

[@LSTeg1994]

What are the chances of you guys linking up with Adam Jones? His current glove is amazing but I can never find anything on it. Just the old trapeze's he used to use.

[@williamvogt7175]

Leon Joyner you got what you wanted and it was awful.

[@TheresaAudrey]

[@GracieTurts]

New fan. Too bad Kiermaier is injured right now

[@iarnold12gloves]

Great video!

[@nolanmonahan6348]

Was his wrist taped or is that a wrist band? I have a Rawlings pro preferred for infield and it's the best glove I've ever had and I'll never switch to anything else. Rawlings pro preferred I web is the best for infield

[@YouM4dYetBr0]

Pretty sure it is some sort of tape or athletic wrap, most players do that but maybe its a wristband

[@hdz1937]

Nolan Monahan It's wrist tape

[@TristenGroff]

Can you tell me where I can find a sleeve the color he is wearing?

[@JinkoYT]

Tristen Groff just look up a Ray's arm sleve

[@davidrandall1774]

Should I get a Wilson or Rawlings outfield glove?

[@thecajunangler8589]

Depends on your own feel. I prefer Wilson, but I am not an outfielder so I don't know about their outfield gloves.

[@GarstyPoo]

Wilson for infield unless it is Rawlings Pro Preferred. Rawlings Heart of Hide or Pro Preferred both are great for outfield.

[@ryanrendall2910]

justin smoak? or eric Hosmer?

[@yanderoro3721]

if i was in the bigs and one out away from say a shutout or something and someone made an amazing play you can bet your ass im buying them a really nice dinner

[@WhatProsWear]

you and me both.

[@omatupou9800]

[@sampewett6032]

[@omatupou9800]

hi

[@ETownBlitzballLeague]

Man how do these gloves look so Soft and thin man I have a glove and it's pretty heavy

[@headshotboomin]

What's the difference between a gold glover and a platinum "glover"

[@689_shane]

they select a gold glove for the best defensive player at each position so nine are awarded but only one platinum glove is awarded and it goes to the best defensive player over all no matter what position just who plays their position the best defensively in the league

[@omatupou9800]

can u hook up with Tim beckahm
