A baseball pitching machine is a device designed to deliver baseballs at various speeds and angles to help players practice their hitting skills. These machines can be adjusted to simulate different types of pitches, such as fastballs, curveballs, and sliders, allowing batters to improve their timing and technique. Typically powered by electricity or compressed air, pitching machines can be used in training sessions for both amateur and professional players. They are commonly found in baseball training facilities, schools, and recreational areas, providing a consistent and reliable way to practice hitting without the need for a live pitcher.
