Why small balls
-
Game-speed reaction
A small ball at up to 95 mph simulated speed trains your eyes to pick up the pitch faster.
-
Hand-eye coordination
Training a small ball increases concentration and makes a real ball look like a beach ball.
-
Save your arm
Great for parents and coaches. No more throwing batting practice; the machine does the pitching.
-
Hit anywhere
Take swings in the garage, basement, living room or backyard.

Hear it from the hitters
“This is the first training product that I have purchased that my kids are excited to use. The product offers plenty of room for growth with all it's adjustable speeds, so it will be part of their training for years to come. I couldn't be happier with this purchase.”
“So convenient to take anywhere for swings. Tracking the small ball increases concentration and makes a real ball look like a beach ball. As a Coach and league president I would recommend the investment for literally anyone to purchase the Personal Pitcher®! Let 'er rip!”
“This thing has been a game-changer for me. I play in a 35+ adult league and hadn't played in nearly 25 years. I can hit high velo and my bat is super quick. My K rate is about once every 16ABs. I'm the Tony Gwynn of adult baseball!”
“Gave this to my 12 year old grandson and 9 year old granddaughter for Xmas. This was a very big hit and they have been practicing everyday! So much fun to watch them enjoying themselves and improving their batting and catching skills! Thank you for a great product!”
“My 11 year old loves this machine. He sits in the hallway and catches balls with the finger web glove all day long. It forces better hand eye coordination that immediately transferred into improved batting sessions. Working on ways to incorporate into my team practices. Highly recommend.”
“My twins love this machine. They are five and are taking hacks all day long. Great tool without the risk of injury at their age. Entertains the adults as well during backyard hangouts. Thank you! Built a cage using canopies and netting.”
“Great pitching machine for youth. Our youth team had our best hitting game yesterday and this machine definitely helped with timing. I'm very happy with this product. Thank you!”
“Had some issues with the machine sent out due to UPS. Chris made it right in record speed. Called me to help diagnose the issue and then got me a new machine the next day. They are the real deal!”
“Great product. My son is a catcher and he uses the machine for both soft hands and hitting. Easy setup and a very fair price. I have already recommended this to several people. Thanks for a great product!”
The original.
Still under $250.

Owner Chris Richard was a late bloomer who trained on this machine and grinded his way to the majors, then homered on the very first pitch he saw. His dad built the first Personal Pitcher in 1988. For over thirty years, our goal has been to help players of all ages get the most out of their ability and achieve their dreams...whether it's moving up in the line up, making the All Star team or making it to the Big Leagues.
