Number 17 Batter and Number 2 Catcher at Home Plate

A baseball batter in a jersey with the number 17 leans over home plate, seen from behind, holding the bat up near his shoulder. He wears a helmet, belted pants, tall socks and cleated shoes. Right beside him, a catcher in a mask and cap crouches low with a big mitt held out in front. His jersey shows the number 2, and straps cross his back. The batter's box lines and the dirt curve around the plate are drawn on the ground. You could use this free printable to talk about team colors, giving the two players different uniforms so you can tell the teams apart. Chunky numbers like 17 and 2 are fun to fill in with bold stripes or patterns, and the mitt and cleats are good spots for brown shading and detail.
