The 1381-8361-1 Junior Hack Attack is a wonderful pitching machine for anyone that needs a reliable piece of equipment for professional practices, youth games, and anything else in-between. The three wheel design allows you to see the ball clearly and fully all the way through the feeding motion and helps the hitter see when to stride, giving him an actual live-arm sense of timing and location. This pitching machine also has an inside/outside adjustment that will center the first pitch without having to shift the entire machine, allow the operator to move the pitch inside or outside with a simple turn of a handle, and in combination with the elevation control will quickly move a pitch to any area of the strike zone between pitches. The throwing head of the Hack Attack pivots instantly in any direction for all fungo work, including deep fly balls that can drive fielders to the fence, slicing line drivers, catcher's pop-ups with reverse spin, towering infield pop-ups, and grounders. This effective training tool helps to save time in practice with limited throwing head adjustments needed and an almost instant recovery time. This machine is also easy and quick to move on and off the field but just tilting it, un-socketing the legs and easily rolling it on two heavy-duty transporting wheels (now the throwing wheels). This system also has wheel guards that keep the machine protected from spare balls and if it happens to tilt and hit the ground. This machine is designed for use with regulation leather baseballs, dimpled practice balls, Wiffle balls, and all softer practice balls (not synthetic leather balls as they wear quickly and will leave a residue on the wheel). No assembly is required. This pitching machine is heavy enough to absorb recoil, ensuring accuracy, yet portable and easily moved by one person. The extra wide tripod base insures real stability and safety on pitching mounds or baseball playing surfaces. The high tensile, tough heat-treated alloy, weather-resistant aluminum casting throwing head, protects the throwing mechanism. The rugged powder-coated rust-proof steel frame ensures limitless seasons of use. The throwing wheels out-last all other baseball pitching machine wheels and don't melt in direct summer heat.
