Baseball Batter Silhouette Blanket for Fans and Players

Baseball Batter Silhouette Blanket shows a black batter mid-swing against a cracked white baseball, and the red stitched seams running down both sides make the whole blanket feel like the ball itself. If you know the moment the bat meets the pitch, this design was made for you.

Note: the pillow shown in the photo are for styling only and not included.

The print at a glance: the batter, the cracked ball and the seams

A solid black silhouette of a batter fills the lower left of the blanket, his stance wide and his bat cocked back. Beside him sits a white baseball with its stitching drawn in fine red thread, and fractures spread outward from the ball as if it has just been struck hard. The red seams run in long curves down the left and right edges, so the stitching frames the whole scene. The contrast between the flat black figure and the bright white ground keeps your eye moving from the batter to the ball and back again. The design reads clearly from across a room, and the simple shapes make the motion of the swing easy to feel.

Who it is for: young ballplayers, parents and devoted fans

Young players who count down the innings will spot the batter first and recognize the swing they are practicing. Parents who spend Saturday mornings on the sidelines will see their own kid in that stance. Longtime fans who still keep score by hand will love how the cracked ball looks like it just left the bat. This baseball blanket works for anyone who loves the game, from a first-year Little Leaguer to a grandfather who has seen decades of summers.

Occasions to use it: birthdays, season openers and game nights

Wrap it around a player after a tough loss, or hand it over on a birthday when the wish list is all baseball. It also fits neatly on the sofa for a season-opening game night, with popcorn and the scoreboard glowing on the screen. Many families pass it along to whoever is cheering loudest in the stands, making it a gift that gets used again and again.
