The pin and clip that is referenced on the product page of the Philadelphia Phillies MLB Hitch Cover, # OHCC2121, refers to a metal trailer hitch pin like part # PC3. The metal pin slides through the small round holes in your trailer hitch to secure items to the hitch and the clip is attached to the end of the pin to ensure the pin will not slip out of your trailer hitch.

Another popular option over a standard pin and clip is a trailer hitch receiver lock like part # e98880. These locks will ensure that no one will steal your trailer hitch accessory from your vehicle while you are not around. They are a good idea for hitch covers and other hitch accessories since you will most likely leave them on your 2011 Honda Pilot most of the time even when you are not around.
