Easy, just buy a regular size mitt and give it to my roommate to launder, it’ll shrink to the perfect size.

The best baseball bat to club baby seals is the one that is capable of clubbing baby seals at the highest rate while remaining durable enough to last the trip to China so that one can trade opium and sealskin for Chinaware since one generally doesn’t want to trade away one’s silver and ginseng isn’t as feasible; also, the bat can be used as a club to the Chinese governors in case bribes of opium are not enough and also, the bat can be used to club trade away since aluminum baseball bats will not be invented for many a century and so the present market value at the time will ostensibly be much higher in standardized purchasing power in order to warrant parting ways with such a majestic tool that has been and will continue to be used by players such as Justin Smoak and Donavan Solano to crush baseballs in batting practice although not in games since they players generally suck at crushing baseballs when the ball is thrown by a professional-level pitcher who is purposely trying to get them out.
