FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What size umpire ball bag do I need?
It depends on how many balls you typically carry and how often you want to stop for refills. A standard ball bag holds fewer balls and sits more compactly on the belt; an oversized bag like this one trades a bit of extra bulk for going longer between restocks, useful for softball umpires in particular, where balls get put in play more often.
-
How many balls does an oversized ball bag hold?
This bag holds up to 5 softballs or 8 baseballs, roughly the capacity of two standard-sized bags in one.
-
What's the difference between a regular and oversized umpire ball bag?
The oversized version is 2.25 inches wider than Smitty's standard ball bag, which is what allows it to hold more balls at once. Both use the same 100% polyester construction, double stitching, and belt-loop design, the oversized bag is simply built for higher capacity.
-
What's the best umpire ball bag for softball?
Softball umpires tend to prefer an oversized bag because softballs take up more room than baseballs and get put in play more frequently, especially at the plate. This bag was designed with that in mind and holds up to 5 softballs at once.
-
What can I keep in the interior pockets?
The three interior pockets are sized for an indicator, a lineup card, and a plate brush, though officials also use them for a wallet, pencil, or other small gear they want to keep separate from the balls.
-
Does this bag fit on an umpire belt?
Yes. The bag has two belt loops sized to fit a standard umpire belt.
