SKU: STBTPM-S
The Sports Tutor Batting Tutor Pitching Machine delivers automatic fastball practice for backyard batting cages, with separate Baseball and Softball models to match your game. Adjustable speed, timed ball delivery, and visual and audible pitching cues help hitters work on timing, swing consistency, and confident contact without a coach feeding every ball.
Choose Baseball or Softball
Select the machine designed for your ball type. Both versions pitch fastballs from 30 to 60 mph in 5 mph increments and automatically deliver a pitch every 10 seconds.
-
Baseball model: Holds up to 120 baseballs and releases pitches at a height of 48 inches. Low-seam baseballs are recommended; dimple, RIF, and standard baseballs are also suitable.
-
Softball model: Holds up to 70 softballs and releases pitches at a height of 26 inches. Designed for 12-inch dimple softballs, with 12-inch RIF softballs also suitable.
Automatic Practice or Single-Pitch Instruction
Load the hopper, turn on the machine, select your speed using the digital controls, and start automatic pitching. Use the Single Pitch feature when you want to pause between swings for coaching, adjust a hitter's stance, or focus on a specific technique. A large rear adjustment knob lets you change pitch height.
Light and Sound Cues for Better Timing
A beep alerts players before each delivery, followed by a red, yellow, and green light sequence near the ball exit. These cues help batters anticipate release and prepare their swings instead of reacting to a ball appearing without warning.
Durable Housing and Outlet Power
The one-wheel pitching mechanism is protected by an all-weather, high-impact plastic housing. Both models operate from a standard 115V grounded electrical outlet and weigh approximately 106 pounds.
-
Baseball dimensions: 19 inches wide x 30 inches deep x 64 inches high.
-
Softball dimensions: 19 inches wide x 30 inches deep x 46 inches high.
Optional Wired Remote
Add the separately sold Batting Tutor hand-held wired remote to start and stop automatic pitching or deliver one pitch at a time. It lets a coach control the pace of practice while giving feedback between swings.
Three-Year Manufacturer Warranty
Both models are backed by a three-year manufacturer's warranty covering parts and labor.
