Expert Author: Bill Ryan

A good pitching machine will improve your batting average considerably. Add a top notch batting cage and you have a winning combination.

Before you think about pitching machines, you have to find a batting cage. The top of the line batting cages should have very good quality pitching machines. If they don't, go somewhere else.

If you can't find any good batting cages or there are none available in your area, you might want to look at buying them. The upfront investment can be rather significant but if you are serious about baseball they can reap you a lot of dividends.

If you decide to purchase a pitching machine, you may want to consider the following:

1. As noted earlier, the pitching machine must allow you to easily change or adjust speed and types of pitches. It want help you if all you get are fast balls when in a real game there will be curves and sliders as well.

2. Anything mechanical will need to be repaired or parts replaced. Assess the warranty information for the pitching machine before you buy.

3. Go online and find out what the product ratings for various pitching machines are. This will help you narrow down your choices considerably and make your return on investment that much greater.

An owners manual is an invaluable document when maintaining your pitching machine investment. Follow the maintenance instructions and cover your new pitching machine with a tarp when not in use.
