It is made for hitters of all ages and skill levels practicing at home or at the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pitch head swivels to throw fastballs, sliders and curves, and a variable speed knob runs from beginner to advanced speeds, so you can change pace without changing balls. Its 1\/8-horsepower A\/C motor drives a fully enclosed solid wheel. Adjusting the pitch height turns the machine into a fielding tool for grounders, line drives and pop flies out to 200 feet. The included feeder holds 12 balls and releases one every 8 seconds, letting a hitter take about a dozen pitches in a minute and a half, or more than 100 in under 20 minutes, with no one pitching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Slider Lite 360 is designed for lite baseballs, roughly half the weight of a regulation ball. Rated at 46 feet, orange lite balls reach 40 MPH, Slider leather lite balls 55 MPH, white lite balls 60 MPH and green lite balls 80 MPH. Speed can be adjusted with the knob, the type of ball or the machine's distance from the batter. Real baseballs are not recommended and can void the manufacturer warranty. The machine plugs into a standard 110V outlet or runs from a separately sold battery pack supplying at least 200 watts and 10 amps for an hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Xtender cage measures 24 feet long, 12 feet wide and 10 feet high and can be shortened by setting the stakes closer together. Fiberglass poles, 1 1\/4-inch netting and steel ground stakes form the structure, which goes up in minutes, and a built-in harness attaches the machine directly to the cage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlider Lite 360 pitching machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic 12-ball feeder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXtender batting cage, 24 ft. x 12 ft. x 10 ft., with built-in machine harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold separately: lite baseballs, battery pack\/power station and wireless feeder remote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heater Sports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67923938771222,"sku":"SLBC24","price":479.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0029\/5702\/files\/SLBC24-01.jpg?v=1794077299","url":"https:\/\/proathleticsupply.com\/products\/heater-sports-slider-lite-360-baseball-machine-xtender-24-batting-cage-package","provider":"Pro Athletic Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
