Nice idea, but I think a little bit of effort could have been put into making this a more interesting shot. A dirty floor isn't the most interesting backdrop for a photograph. Also, I think this is not exactly what I picture in my mind when I think of baseball. How about some action next time like a ball being caught or something to jazz up the photo.
Try to think about negative space and rule of thirds. This is a good idea, but it's very distracting in the negative space - the pipes in behind. Also, the lighting is okay, but the colours need to be more saturated.
More care and thought needs to go into a still-life. The background is very ugly and says nothing about the subject. Placing the subject in context (a baseball field, a child's bed to show preparation for a game, etc) or in front of a simple background (unpatterned neutral cloth or background paper)
would be much more effective. Your focus is sharp and the lighting is good if rather flat and mundane.
are those bats in the background? i think it would look better if they were either totally in the picture or totally out of the picture. very nice focus
