Where:

Baseball Glove: Also known as a mitt, it is a large leather glove worn by baseball players of the defending team. It assists players in catching and fielding balls hit by a batter or thrown by a teammate. The glove’s design includes webbing between the thumb and forefinger, allowing players to catch and secure the ball more easily. Baseball gloves come in various sizes and styles, tailored to the specific needs of different positions on the field.

Let's say the hand length (L) is 7 inches and the hand width (W) is 4 inches. Using the formula:

\[ G = \frac{7 + 4}{2} \]

We get:

\[ G = 5.5\, \text{inches} \]

So, the glove size is 5.5 inches.
