Major League Home Plate

Description

The MacGregor major league home plate is a hard rubber plate with beveled edges and an included ground sleeve anchor for secure, permanent installation. At 16.5 pounds, it has the weight to sit firmly in the batter’s box while the ground sleeve locks it in place so it cannot be dislodged during slides or aggressive plays at the plate. The weather-resistant rubber construction holds up to outdoor exposure across multiple seasons without cracking or degrading.

The beveled edges on this major league home plate angle downward from the white top surface, preventing cleats and uniforms from snagging on the plate edge during slides. This is a key safety feature for competitive play where runners are crossing the plate at full speed. The included ground sleeve anchor installs below the playing surface and accepts the plate from above, holding it in position without the need for exposed bolts or surface-level hardware that could create trip hazards.

This plate is suited for high school varsity fields, travel ball complexes, and adult league diamonds where a competition-grade home plate is required. For a heavier option that relies on mass rather than an anchor to stay in place, the wood filled home plate weighs in at 26.4 lbs and needs no ground sleeve. The waffle-style in-ground home plate offers a flush-mount alternative for fields that want the plate level with the dirt. See all bases and plates for the full selection.
