Yesterday Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Joe Musgrove showed off his new glove for Players’ Weekend. And while it was a big hit and made me laugh, in hindsight it seems, I dunno . . . inevitable that someone would go with this model.
Yes, it’s a glove made to look like the Infinity Gauntlet from the Avengers movie. Musgrove is not that big of a guy, so I’m skeptical that he forced the dwarves of Nidavellir to forge it under duress. Based on the swoosh it seems to have been made by Nike.
Take a gander at him showing it off before last night’s game:
Really nice of Thanos to let @Pirates Pitcher Joe Musgrove use his glove today.

And as we all know, Pirates pitchers are experts at going for the head.
