Default Dating a pre-WWI bat, ball and catcher's mitt

I attempted to date these items about 7 years ago through this forum, and was only able to find a resource for the bat. I cannot find the dating info, but the person used the label to narrow it down to I believe, 1910-14. The catcher's mitt is a Horace Partridge and looks a little small, but maybe they were smaller then (presumably around 1910-20). I also have a beat-up ball that came with the other items - it has the pre-20's narrow red/blue stitching, but I'm wandering if I can assign a more narrow date range to it as well. Thanks.
