Exploring the Trade Show in San Diego

SAN DIEGO -- Every December, Minor League Baseball teams go shopping. 
The Baseball Trade Show, a major component of the annual Baseball Winter Meetings, is a one stop-shop for a wide variety of national pastime goods and services. This year's edition, held at the San Diego Convention Center over three full days, features 250 vendors displaying their wares over an estimated 100,000 square feet of exhibition space. (The Baseball Trade Show was recently recognized as the fastest-growing overall show for attendance by the Trade Show News Network.)
Curious as to what lies therein? What follows is a photographic and video overview of the myriad products on offer (all photos by Danny Wild/MiLB.com).
