Holiday season is fast approaching and many of us will be thinking of gifts for our friends and family. If you’ve got a loved one who is a baseball fan, a baseball-related gift could prove to be a hit. However, it’s possible that they may already have received their fair share of baseball-related gifts over the years. So just how do you ensure that they receive something unique? Below are just a few excellent curveball gifts to consider for those who are willing to step up to the plate.

Personalized bat

Your friend or family member may already have a bat, but do they have a personalized bat? These are fantastic one-of-a-kind gifts that don’t cost as much to produce as you may think. There are several sites online that allow you to design and order personalized bats. Compare prices and reviews to find the best one. 

Baseball cufflinks

Buying for a guy who regularly wears suits? Baseball cufflinks could be a small way for them to express their passion for baseball. You can buy cufflinks shaped like baseballs or cufflinks shaped like baseball bats. There are also cufflinks shaped like baseball players and baseball gloves. 

Pitching machine

Pitching machines aren’t a cheap gift, but are certain to be appreciated by someone who is serious about playing baseball. These machines can help budding baseball players to improve their reaction time and hand eye coordination. Some machines come with a basic single setting, while others are able to provide a variety of pitch types and pitch speeds. Take the time to compare reviews of machines online. 

Batting tee

Batting tees can similarly help to improve batting accuracy, while being a lot cheaper than a pitching machine. The best batting tees are height adjustable and are made from durable materials. You can explore many different styles of batting tee online.

Baseball bauble

Looking for a specifically festive baseball-oriented gift? A baseball shaped bauble to hang on the Xmas tree could be the ideal gift. It’s a great stocking filler!

Radar gun

A radar gun can be used to record the speed of the ball. This is a great gift for an avid baseball player wanting to improve their pitch. Using a radar gun, you can track the speed of each of your pitches and set speed targets to beat. You can buy radar guns online. 

Baseball stadium map

A baseball stadium map shows the location of every MLB stadium across America. This could make a novel poster for your friend or family member to hang on their wall. You can also buy stadium blueprint maps. These contain a diagram that shows all the different parts of a stadium. Look for a blueprint of their local team stadium and consider giving them this as a gift. 

Baseball candy

You can buy all kinds of candy themed around baseball. This includes balls and bats made of chocolate, and even baseball-themed gummies. This is a great gift for a baseball fan with a sweet tooth.
