The 1st training device you absolutely have to own.

The Personal Pitcher is the most affordable and practical means to becoming a better hitter. Mounted on a standard camera tripod, the Personal Pitcher can be used inside or outside all year round! It holds up to 48 golf-sized wiffle balls and the small balls force the hitter to concentrate on seeing the ball. The Personal Pitcher even has a light that tells the hitter when the ball is about ready to be pitched, allowing the hitter to take his stride, something most pitching machines don't easily allow.

New 2008 Models Are Now Available

Both of our Personal Pitcher models now have 4 adjustable speeds: 20 (soft toss), 35, 45, & 55+ mph. If you need more speed, just move the machine closer to increase reaction times.

The Personal Pitcher fits the theory, "All you need is 25 feet and enough area to swing a bat."

The Personal Pitcher Pro Model

Personal Pitcher Curveball Pro

Now You Can Hit Fastballs & LH/RH Curveballs!

It has the same features as the Personal Pitcher, but it also throws right and left handed curve balls or sliders in addition to straight fastballs. There are 3 switches on the Curveball Pro that enable you to throw different pitches, including a setting that will throw fastballs only.

New in 2008, the Curveball Pro comes equipped with the Pitch Isolation Training (PIT) system. PIT allows a batter to isolate a specific pitch that is causing problems (such as inside fastballs, outside curveballs or low sliders) by repeatedly throwing accurate pitches to the same spot until a batter can hit it. By focusing on one type of pitch, the batter can concentrate on the mechanics, bat angle and point of contact needed to be successful.

Purchase includes 4 dozen balls, 4 hour rechargeable battery, Quad pitch speed, AC adapter/battery recharger, 2 year warranty.

Includes FREE Batting Gloves

Do you want to hit like this?

Chris Richard, the first user of the Personal Pitcher (his dad invented the machine), hit a home run on his first pitch in AAA for Memphis and hit the first major league pitch he saw for a home run on July 17, 2000 with the St. Louis Cardinals. Chris still uses the Personal Pitcher 3 times a week in the off-season to keep his swing sharp.

Update:

Shortly after his Cardinals debut, Chris was traded to the Baltimore Orioles, where he hit 15 home runs and had 61 RBI's in 136 games in 2001. After three years with Baltimore, Chris moved on to the Colorado Rockies in 2003, but shoulder surgery forced him to miss most of that season and all of 2004. Chris was signed by the Texas Rangers in 2005 and spent the season with the team's Triple-A affiliate in Oklahoma City.

History of the Personal Pitcher

In 1988, 14-year old Chris Richard begged his Dad to get him a pitching machine he could use in the backyard. He could never get enough batting practice, and being of small stature, he knew that in order to make the high school junior varsity team, he would have to make a good impression at the plate. The batting cages were inaccessible, and too expensive anyway, so dad began a search for a pitching machine.

--Steve Brutscher, 13, San Francisco, CA.
