The available transport wheels are also easy to lock on the pitching machine for easy transportation with tipping the machine on it’s tires like many other wheeled pitching machines.

Last but certainly not least is capacity. BATA offers several machines at several different price points that allows coaches, parents and players to find the machine that fits their needs. Don’t overpay for an overpowered machine – Find the machine that is best suited to your specifications.
