Looking for some great baseball gifts for Christmas?
Howdy friends and welcome back to BaseballXGear!!
Well, Fall has arrived and it seems as though my Tigers are throwing in the towel. We sold off most of our talent and even gave up Justin Verlander. I hope I’m not in for another ten years of frustration!
I do hope your team is doing well, and despite my Tigers having been out of the race for quite some time now, I am looking forward to what looks to be some great post-season play.
With Christmas right around the corner, I thought I would share with you all some baseball gifts that have been a hit for us over the years.
Even if the person you’re shopping for isn’t a baseball fan, most of them will make a great gift anyway. All of these gift ideas are sure to put a smile on any face.
Here are our top baseball gift picks for Christmas…Or any time.
Baseball Gifts For Christmas – Our Top Picks
Having given and received many baseball gifts, I like to think of myself as the baseball gift idea guru. OK, maybe not a guru, but I do have a good idea of what baseball gifts are great gifts.
Below are our top baseball gifts for Christmas, in no particular order, that we have given over the years that have gotten nothing but rave reviews.
#1 – Super Stadium Baseball Game
The Super Stadium Baseball Game by International Playthings has been one of our most successful gift giving ventures.
The game itself will give you endless hours of fun, but it also gives you a unique teaching opportunity to show young kids how the game of baseball is played without having to go out to a field.
You can bat from either side of the plate, pitch fastballs and curve balls, run bases, and hit singles, doubles, triples & home runs.
This is one of our favorite games and it is actually pretty challenging, so don’t be surprised when the little ones beat you!

#2 – Pocket Radar Ball Coach
If you have visited BaseballXGear before, you probably know that the Pocket Radar Ball Coach is our top rated radar gun.
This thing is so much fun to use, it will make an awesome Christmas present for any age.
The Ball Coach was designed to give extremely accurate and consistent speeds for about 1/3 the price of pro scout models.
I wrote a post comparing the Pocket Radar with some of the biggest names in radar guns to show just how affordable accuracy and consistency can be. You Can Check It Out Here.
Improve all aspects of your game, or just use it to have a ton of fun.
This radar gun is tripod mountable, fits in your pocket and will give you years of reliable fun for everyone!
There are way too many features to list here, so be sure to check out my full Pocket Radar review with the button below.
#3 – Jugs Small-Ball Pitching Machine
If you’re looking for a baseball Christmas gift that will make you any kid’s superhero, then the Jugs Small-Ball has you covered!
This pitching machine can be used indoors or out, making it the ultimate year round fun machine.
Weighing in at just 23 pounds when fully assembled, the Jugs Small-Ball is easily moved inside, in the basement, or to the garage.
The “spongy” baseballs used by the machine won’t harm most walls in the home. The Jugs Small-Ball throws curve balls and fastballs at simulated speeds up to 75 MPH.
The Jugs Small-Ball also comes with an automatic ball feeder that delivers a pitch every 5 seconds. This is a really cool feature that lets you get in those extra swings when you have some extra time.
You can also adjust the machine to throw pop ups and ground balls. The legs are fully adjustable to make easy adjustments for different ages.
You can expect years of fun with this super cool baseball gift for Christmas!

#4 – SKLZ Hit-A-WAY
The SKLZ Hit-A-Way swing trainer is one of our favorite baseball gifts for Christmas.
You can expect endless hours of fun for years to come with this awesome swing trainer from SKLZ.
I got this beauty 4 years ago for my own kids. It has spent each Winter outside on the basketball pole and each Spring it has performed just as well it did on its first day of use.
We have given the swing trainer as gifts several times over the years and everyone who gets it loves it.
The SKLZ Hit-A-Way swing trainer is an affordable baseball gift for Christmas that is sure to please anyone.
We love it and we think you will too!

#5 – Baseball Card Collectors Kit
Remember how fun collecting cards was back in the day?
Well, it’s just as fun now as it was then. I still love collecting baseball cards and it’s a great opportunity to spend time with my kids.
This Ultra-Pro collectors kit comes with everything a card collector of any level could want.
It has 25 pages of 9 pocket sheets inside the binder with sleeves, and even comes with 5 brand new unopened packs of 2010 baseball cards.
Each kit comes with the current issue of Beckett’s baseball card price book.
This baseball gift for Christmas is sure to put a smile on any level card collector’s face.
Card collecting is a great hobby that will give you a lifetime of fun!

A nice range of baseball gifts you have here and I would of loved that super stadium baseball game when I was a kid. These are the types of games I REALLY enjoyed. How expensive is it to buy this game and where can you purchase it from? I also like the small pitching machine! AWESOME

Hey Josh!
The super stadium baseball game has been one of the best gifts we have given over the years. Everyone and every age can enjoy hours of fun with this game. The best price I have found is at Amazon and is usually under 40$. You can scroll back up and check out my full Super Stadium Baseball Game review to check out how cool this game really is.

Dana says
Thanks for the great Christmas gift ideas. I have always loved playing baseball. I spent hours in the yard when I was young playing catch and was on a team for years. I really like the Hit-A-Way and think it would be a great gift and so much fun for my whole family.
Jeremy says
You’re welcome Dana!
Awesome to hear that you played baseball as a kid. My daughter played baseball all the way up til high school when she moved on to softball.
The SKLZ Hit-A-Way would definitely make a great family Christmas gift. We have had ours for years now and we can easily spend hours just taking turns with it.
All of these baseball gifts for Christmas have went over very well every time we have given them.
Thanks for stopping by Dana & hope you have a great Christmas. π

Hi there,
I like the idea of baseball gifts for xmas because for me baseball is the ultimate family game and xmas was meant to be the ultimate family time.
Thank you for the many ideas you provide. You elucidate in a simple way in what is available and you make it readable and accessible, which I appreciate because I am not into sports
Cheers
Jeremy says
Awesome Orion!
You have nailed it. Christmas is the ultimate family time & baseball is the ultimate family sport…I love it. π
The great thing about these gifts, is you don’t have to be a baseball fan, or even a sports fan to enjoy them. I have given these as gifts to many people in the past who weren’t baseball fans, but they still absolutely loved them.
But if the one your shopping for does happen to be a baseball fan, you have hit the jackpot!
These baseball gifts for Christmas have been a massive hit in the past and I know any baseball fan would love to receive any of them.
P.S. If you stick around BaseballXGear for too long, you will become a baseball fan! π
Thanks for stopping by & I hope you have a very merry Christmas.

Hi Jeffery.
I’m glad you found the post on baseball gifts for Christmas helpful.

All of these gifts have been a big hit over the years, so it’s hard for me to pick just one! π
The Pocket Radar Ball Coach would be great for anyone…This thing is awesome!
The baseball card collectors kit is a great way to introduce a young baseball fan to a new hobby.
The SKLZ Hit A Way will definitely improve the swing of young hitters and it is so much fun to use!
Ugh!…I hope I answered your question?
I do believe that you can’t go wrong with any of these gifts, for any age fan. I use them all and so do my kids. And remember, they don’t even have to be baseball fans…All these gift ideas are just plain fun! π
