A batting cage is a facility designed for baseball and softball players to practice their hitting skills. It typically consists of a netted enclosure where players can take swings at pitched balls without the risk of them going far. Batting cages often feature automatic pitching machines that deliver balls at various speeds and angles, allowing players to improve their timing and technique. Many batting cages are found in sports complexes, parks, or dedicated training centers. They can be used by players of all ages and skill levels, from beginners to professionals. Some facilities also offer lessons and coaching to help players enhance their performance in the sport.
