Spirit Yardball
Black leather, orange stitches, and a few bats you can see when the light hits.
A ball and a glove in one. Throw it, catch it, no mitt required.
Better than a full-size candy bar. Lasts a lot longer, too.
It's not just a ball. You'll know on the first catch.
Four ounces. Enough heft to really throw, light enough to toss all afternoon.
Firmer than foam, softer than a baseball. A missed catch is just a laugh.
Real leather that warms up in your hand and breaks in the more you throw it.
It lands in a bare hand with a soft, solid thwap. No glove, no sting.
Not too hard, not too soft, perfect weight to be able to throw without causing injury or breaking things. Matthew · Glove Tan · ★★★★★
You have to look twice.
Like a spirit in a haunted house, this one waits for you to get close. The leather is black, the logo is black, and there are bats in there too, black on black. Tilt it toward the porch light and they show up.
The only thing not hiding is the stitching. 108 orange stitches, pulled tight by hand in Kansas City.
Leave it in the candy bowl. Somebody will find it.
The details
What it's made of, and every angle.Black leather, orange stitches, and a black-on-black logo with a few bats hiding in it. LPR #20, our Halloween ball for 2026.
Underneath, it's a Yardball like the rest. Soft enough to catch bare-handed, heavy enough to really throw. Toss it on the porch between trick-or-treaters, or leave it in the candy bowl for someone to find.
Hand-stitched in Kansas City. 10.5 in. around, 4 oz.
People keep throwing it.
It's heavy enough to throw quite a distance but soft enough so that if my grandson misses the catch, it won't break his nose.
I said, “You throw it. And you catch it. No glove required.” … And he got into it. Highly recommended for everyone, including dumb brothers.
My family loves it! No game, no rules, just a ball to toss around.
Brings me back to my childhood. Can't remember a time I didn't play catch with my Dad. Now playing it with my Grandkids.
We're fans for life. Really wish we could get our hands on some of the sold out limited editions though!
Kids loved it. played catch all afternoon.
Will the Spirit Yardball come back?
Made once, maybe twice. When this run's gone, the next LPR will be something different.
Can you really catch it bare-handed?
Yes. It's softer than a baseball and sized for bare hands. That's the whole idea.
How big is it?
10.5 inches around and four ounces. Bigger than a baseball, smaller than a softball.
Is it a good gift?
It's the gift that doesn't sit in a drawer. It lives on a desk until someone throws it.
