JUGS BP1 Pitching Machines
Available in baseball, softball, and combination baseball/softball models, the BP1 is used by baseball pitching machine leagues, school baseball & softball programs, youth leagues, and is the official pitching machine of the USA Softball Team. Players and coaches everywhere can attest to the quality and precision of BP1 Pitching Machine.
All 3 models of the BP1 throw pitches from a realistic release point and throw consistent strikes so your players can confidently step into the batter's box and start swinging.
With this machine’s digital speed readout display allows you to set your BP1 to throw at the exact speed that is best for your players, anywhere between 15MPH to 70MPH. This makes it the perfect pitching machine for young ball players to hone their swings because pitches arrive in virtually the same location each time. That makes the challenge of hitting a little easier and a lot more fun.
The BP1 is also the ideal defensive training machine. The unique swivel design base provides 360 degree movement for fly balls, pop-ups and ground balls.
