Hitting a smaller target sharpens a batter's timing, hand-eye coordination and reaction speed, so the machine suits young players learning to make contact as well as experienced hitters who want focused swing work at home, in the backyard or at the park. The manufacturer recommends it for ages 8 through adult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo independent wheel-speed controls let you choose between fastballs and curveballs, and the pitch height can be raised or lowered to put the ball where you want it in the strike zone. Pitches arrive at up to 40 MPH measured at 25 feet. A built-in feeder holds two dozen mini balls and releases them automatically, with a knob that sets the pause between pitches, so a hitter can work through a full load without a partner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version ships without a battery. It runs from a standard 110V outlet through the included power cord, and it has a battery compartment that accepts an optional 6V rechargeable battery, sold separately, for use away from an outlet. With rechargeable batteries the manufacturer lists run time of up to 8 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteel legs keep the machine steady during use, and the wheels are fully enclosed. Combined with the soft mini balls, that makes the Crusher a practical option for indoor sessions as well as outdoor practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrusher mini lite-ball pitching machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 dozen Crusher mini lite-balls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower cord for A\/C use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery compartment for optional rechargeable batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel legs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heater Sports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67923953025302,"sku":"CR99","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0029\/5702\/files\/Crusher-01_8c392ba1-ed4b-43c7-9778-25cdacb09596.jpg?v=1794077423","url":"https:\/\/proathleticsupply.com\/products\/heater-sports-crusher-fastball-curveball-mini-ball-pitching-machine","provider":"Pro Athletic Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
