Overview

The mini3 Softball Pitching Machine is a compact 3-wheel softball machine that throws from 30–70 mph with 7 pre-set pitches, giving hitters game-like looks in a portable, easy-to-use design.

Built specifically for softball, mini3 lets coaches adjust speed, pitch type, elevation and angle so they can run realistic hitting and defensive drills for backyard players, youth leagues, high schools, colleges, professionals and hitting facilities.

Features

• 3-wheel design: Three wheels provide better contact with the ball for exceptional pitch control and accuracy and eliminate the need to rotate the machine to change pitches.
• Always See The Ball™ delivery: Black “hitter’s eye” ball chute gives hitters an unobstructed view from machine to hitting zone to improve timing and pitch recognition.
• Digital speed adjustment: LCD readout and digital controls let you set precise speeds from 30–70 mph.
• Defensive versatility: Vertical and horizontal Macro Adjustment Levers and full 360° rotation make it easy to throw 250' fly balls, line drives and ground balls for full-field defensive practice.
