Tired of setting up random objects as baseball, kickball, or softball bases? Rely on the quality of Franklin baseball bases for practice in the park or backyard, or for playing on the field. These throw-down bases are designed with superior grip so they won’t slip and slide around haphazardly. Bases that are too light can blow away easily, but Franklin’s baseball base set is designed to stay put yet still be easy enough to carry. Franklin rubber baseball bases are weather-resistant and quality-made. This baseball base set is popular for its ease of use as softball, tee-ball, and kickball bases, so it’s great for players involved in multiple sports, or just for fun in the backyard!

Each base probably weighs a couple of pounds and seem very durable…..much better than the real thin, lightweight, flimsy base set. On a flat gym floor, these will stay in place a lot better because of their weight. They do a good job on the grass and are wonderful to throw in the trunk for possible pickup games with the kids (or their…
