Practice Like You Play Integrating Video Pitching Simulators into Your Baseball Training Routine

The purpose of this book is to explore the history of pitching and bowling machines for baseball, softball, and cricket; study the current market for such training devices; identify the pros and cons of such machines; and, finally, discuss and explain why video pitching simulators are a far better way to train hitters and batters for these sports for one, primary reason— they are the closest thing to training hitters and baters in a game-like environment. This book describes the optimal training method for both young and experienced baseball, softball, and cricket hitters--from Little League to college to aspiring professional players--for play in real games. The book explains how a Video Pitching (or Bowling) Simulator like the one designed, engineered, manufactured, and marketed by ProBatter Sports can deliver a pitch that creates an authentic, game-like and fun experience for players of all ages.
