			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We at Vinci are proud of the Baseball Glove review we received from <a target="_blank" href="http://www.sportsproductreview.com/review/2011/1/13/january-13-2011-unsung-hero.html" target="_blank">Sport Product Review</a></p>
<p>Unsung Hero</p>
<div id="attachment_2018" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a title="BV1150-M" href="http://www.vincipro.com/cart/baseball-glove-bv1150-m-black-11.5-inch-glove-solid-web.html" target="_self"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2018" title="BV1150sportsproductreview" src="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/BV1150sportsproductreview-300x138.jpg" alt="BV1150-M Reviewed By Sports Product Review" width="300" height="138" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">BV1150-M Reviewed by Sports Product Review</p></div>
<p>There’s nothing we like more than when we unearth a company that’s mostly off the beaten path, but which puts out quality gear that rivals or surpasses the “big boys.” Over the past four years of Sports Product Review’s existence, we’ve found manufactures in nearly every major sport, mostly family-owned, who pride themselves in creating the best product, providing the best customer service, and offering the greatest value, without passing along the cost of a multi-million dollar advertising budget to you.</p>
<p>So, ready for another one? Check out Vinci, www.vincipro.com. Vinci specializes in top-of-the line baseball gloves, batting gloves, sunglasses and other equipment that matches the same quality professionals use. Vinci’s gloves are hand-crafted by a master craftsman who uses only the finest “Kip” leather. Not sure what Kip Leather is? Kip leather is 20% lighter and tighter grained than conventional steer hide. This makes gloves are more pliable, easier to break in, and stronger. The signature Vinci exclusive deep pocket design allows for better control and less spin. And among many more features too numerous to mention, each glove comes shipped with their special glove conditioner, which dramatically decreases break-in time and protects the glove for years of use.</p>
<p>They sent us a glove to use, and it may be the most comfortable we’ve worn. It is solid yet supple; lightweight but sturdy – clearly made to last and perform at the highest level. Even the unique design of the web is ingenious. It catches the ball like a pillow, but instantly rebounds, allowing the fielder to get the ball out of the glove quicker than with other mitts.</p>
<p>And if you want a family business that will give you personal attention, it doesn’t get any better than Vinci. Every model number and signature is dedicated to Benjamin Vinci, World War II hero and father of Pete Vinci, the company’s founder and owner.</p>
<p>Because Vinci knows we all have a little hero in us. You get to prove it in the field. But wearing one of their gloves gives you a head start over the other guys.</p>

It has very deep pockets so a pitcher will have no trouble hiding the ball and the Pro Guard palm pad helps eliminate discomfort by protecting the palm while also extending to the index middle and ring finger. The Mesh Series is lighter weight and balances on the hand well. The lighter weight combined with the mesh minimize hand perspiration to keep the players hand cool and  comfortable. The BV1150-M provides ample protection without sacrificing feel.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Looking back through our company's history, we are amazed at how many important Vinci milestones occurred in the month of July and we wanted to take some time to reflect and share some of the highlights with you.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The month of July will forever be linked with the game of baseball.  The classic saying, “as American as baseball and apple pie” comes to mind as families across the United States flock to stadiums to watch firework spectaculars on our nation’s birthday.  July offers baseball fans All Star games, the MLB Futures Game, short season league baseball and many other reasons to spend a warm summer night cheering on our favorite teams and players.</p>
<p>Looking back through our own history, we are amazed at how many important Vinci milestones occurred in the month of July and we wanted to take some time to reflect and share some of the highlights with you.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">July 26th, 1942: </span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.pearlharborhero.com/main.htm" target="_blank">Benjamin Vinci</a></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> is awarded the Purple Heart.</span></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_1438" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 181px"><a href="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/medal1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1438" title="medal" src="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/medal1-171x300.jpg" alt="Benjamin Vinci receives the Purple Heart." width="171" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Benjamin Vinci receives the Purple Heart.</p></div>
<p>Anyone familiar with our story knows that every Vinci glove features the signature of Benjamin Vinci, a true American hero. Benjamin was gravely wounded on the morning of December 7, 1941 in the infamous attacks on Pearl Harbor. After nearly 6 months of treatment (and with a 50 caliber bullet permanently lodged near his heart) Benjamin did what any patriot would do, he returned to active duty. On <strong>July 26<sup>th</sup></strong>, he was awarded the Purple Heart for his valor on the battlefield.  Almost sixty years later on<strong> July 27, 2001</strong>, US Senators Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton (from Benjamin’s Home State of New York) led the US Senate in honoring his bravery. It was with a promise to Benjamin Vinci that “One day he would see his name in the big leagues” that Vinci (the glove) was born.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">July 13th, 2008: Wilkin Ramirez Plays in the MLB Futures Game</span></strong></p>

<div id="attachment_1398" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/6414_1121302886119_1633482193_288950_8158706_n.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1398" title="6414_1121302886119_1633482193_288950_8158706_n" src="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/6414_1121302886119_1633482193_288950_8158706_n-300x167.jpg" alt="Ramirez hits a homer on his first MLB at bat!" width="300" height="167" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Ramirez hits a homer on his first MLB at bat!</p></div>
<p>On July 11<sup>th</sup> of this year, those who tuned in to watch the US take on the World at the MLB Futures Game were treated to a closing camera shot of a pair of Vinci Sport Sunglasses in the dugout of the World Team. Those glasses belonged to outfielder Wilkin Ramirez, and 2010 marked his second trip to the future. In 2008, Wilkin was a member of the World Team that won in a 3 -0 shut out over the US. We were very proud that Wilkin chose to wear a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.vincipro.com/cart/baseball-glove-pjv16-13-black-cp-kip-leather-trapeze-web.html" target="_blank">PJV16 Fielder’s glove</a> and he logged a base hit with his <a href="http://www.vincipro.com/cart/5-batting-gloves-bullet-gray.ht">#5 Vinci Batting Gloves</a> and Vinci Baseball Bat (you can purchase the signed bat <a href="http://www.lrmemo.com/product_p/wr-gu-bat-vinci-uncrk-mod-ath.htm">here</a>). It was a great moment for Vinci to celebrate the future of a valued friend as well as our own future in the big leagues. Wilkin would go on to play for the Detroit Tigers where (while wearing his #5 Vinci Batting Gloves) he would become the first Tiger since Reggie Sanders in 1974 to hit a homerun on his first at bat.</p>

<p>Just 6 days after Ramirez hinted at Vinci’s big league future, the future arrived. On July 19<sup>th</sup>, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AN6vLIUyVHg" target="_blank">Vladimir Nunez</a>, a right-handed relief pitcher was called up to the Atlanta Braves. Based in Richmond, Virginia, Vinci had developed a friendship with Nunez earlier that year. In April he began wearing Vinci gloves for the minor league AAA Braves affiliate team, the Richmond Braves. When Nunez was called up that July, he took his Vinci <a href="http://www.vincipro.com/cart/baseball-fielders-glove-model-mv3-11.75-inch-cp-kip-leather-two_piece-web.html" target="_blank">MV3 </a>glove with him. It was a magical evening for us at Vinci as we watched Vladimir kiss his glove for luck when he stepped to the mound.</p>

<p>Vinci had officially broken the major league barrier in July 2008. There were several other Vinci sightings in the year that followed, but no list of Vinci milestones would be complete without mentioning one of our favorite players, the 2-time Minor League All Star and only the 9<sup>th</sup> player ever to be named Minor League Pitcher of the week 3 times in a single season. Carlos Torres, the 26-year-old right-handed relief pitcher brought his <a href="http://www.vincipro.com/cart/baseball-glove-mv30-black-12-cp-kip-two_piece-web.html">Vinci MV30 </a>along when he was called up to the Chicago White Sox. He made his debut July 22<sup>nd</sup> against the Tampa Bay Rays where he pitched six strong innings to record a quality start.</p>

<p>One year later, <a href="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/an-interview-with-chicago-white-sox-pitcher-carlos-torres" target="_blank">Torres continues to have one of the most decorated careers in AAA Charlotte Knights history</a> and on July 14<sup>th</sup>, he was again named the starting pitcher for the International League All-Stars. He pitched 2 innings of the nationally televised game while wearing his Vinci MV30.</p>

<p align="center"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">July, 2010: Elmer Dessens lights up the NY Mets Bullpen</span></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_1413" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/27791_412252986304_96663846304_4369083_7918330_n-1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1413" title="27791_412252986304_96663846304_4369083_7918330_n-1" src="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/27791_412252986304_96663846304_4369083_7918330_n-1-300x236.jpg" alt="Dessens and his glove earn compliments from Keith Hernandez." width="300" height="236" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Dessens and his glove earn compliments from Keith Hernandez.</p></div>
<p>And finally, we thought we’d tell one of our favorite current stories. Elmer Dessens has been called a lot of things in his 17-year professional baseball career. But recently he’s been bucking the odds by being called the “savior” of the New York Mets bullpen crisis. At 40 years old, this veteran of 9 major league franchises landed in New York (the place where it all started for Vinci).  And he has been racking up the wins ever since.</p>
<p>En route to a recent win (alright this one officially happened on the last day of June, but we’ve been talking about it a lot this July) Elmer Dessens’ Vinci <a target="_blank" href="http://www.vincipro.com/cart/baseball-glove-mv30-12-cp-kip-leather-two_piece-web.html">MV30</a> glove caught the attention of New York baseball legend (and Mets analyst) Keith Hernandez. You might remember Hernandez from his World Series winning career with the Mets and the Cardinals, from his 3 best-selling books, or <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcaq4ElAJrE" target="_self">from his many guest appearances on Seinfeld</a>.  But for those of us at Vinci, Hernandez will now be remembered as the New York legend that chose a nationally televised game to plug our glove. During the fifth inning, Hernandez saw Elmer’s glove and asked the viewing audience, “What’s that label on his Glove? Vinci? Like Leonardo Da Vinci? I’ve heard of that glove company.”</p>
<p>To hear a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izBaHiMli88">New York baseball legend</a> talk about a glove that bears the signature of a New York war hero just 2 short years after Vinci gloves broke into the Big Leagues was surreal to say the least. And it’s just another reason that, here at Vinci, July will always be among our favorite times of year.</p>
<p>Do you have any favorite July baseball stories? If so, drop us a line, we’d love to hear them!<a href="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG00431-20100603-1255.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1423" title="IMG00431-20100603-1255" src="http://www.vincipro.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG00431-20100603-1255-300x165.jpg" alt="IMG00431-20100603-1255" width="300" height="165" /></a></p>
