Had Kylar over today and worked on mechanics, accuracy and velocity. An electronic force/impact reader was used to document progression. He has to beat his previous max each subsequent time out!

I am available for hitting lessons starting next week. Any day at 5, 6, or 7pm. Please text me at 217-714-0848 to set up a time. Pitching machine can throw from 40-90mph with sliders, drop curves, curveballs and changeups. It can be programmed for any pitch type you want and can even throw Random pitches to help hitters adjust to unknown pitches.

First hitter in the cage this year. Ryker took several rounds of 40, 45, and 50mph while still keeping a solid swing.

This pitching machine can throw baseballs from 40-90mph with sliders, curveballs and dropcurves. You can set it for the same pitch on repeat, program an 8-pitch sequence, or program 8 pitches and have it randomly select a pitch to throw until it runs out of baseballs. *The video is an example of Random.
