Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Pitch for pitch and dollar for dollar, the Jugs Lite-Flite softball pitching package is a terrific choice for up-and-coming hitters who want to hone their swings. The Lite-Flite isn't a big-league pitching machine, as it's designed to throw only Lite-Flite baseballs and 11- or 12-inch softballs or Jugs Bulldog baseballs and softballs. As a result, young hitters can learn how to hit sharp-breaking pitches without worrying about bruises or bone breaks. However, that doesn't mean the Lite-Flite won't prepare you for the next level. The machine offers a full range of movement that adjusts for all types of pitches, including fastballs, curveballs, and sliders. In addition, you can adjust the swivel-design base casting 360 degrees to simulate fly balls, ground balls, and pop-ups--a must for fielders who want to practice defense in the backyard. And it doesn't matter which side of the plate you prefer, as the Lite-Flite throws both left- and right-handed pitches.

The Lite-Flite softball package includes a pitching machine, protective screen, 2-dozen practice balls, and more.

The Lite-Flite softball pitching package also includes a number of other items to prepare you for your practice routine. For example, the package includes the Jugs rechargeable battery pack, a self-contained battery that runs your Lite-Flite machine for up to 3 hours of continuous use. Designed to recharge in only four hours, the battery pack comes complete with a 32-inch extension cord, a battery recharger, a nylon shoulder strap, and a heavy-duty nylon carrying case. Also included is a Lite-Flite protective screen, which sets up quickly in front of the pitching machine to shield both the machine and anyone who stands behind it. The screen is equipped with a 1-3/8-inch steel pipe frame with fold-and-clip legs, along with a series of Quick-Snap connectors. Once assembled (the frame sets up in about 1-1/2 minutes), just slip the forest-green netting over the exterior like a pillowcase, thereby providing two layers of #4,000 twine protection. Because the screen assembles so quickly, you can zip to the park for some serious batting practice without turning your trip into a full-day affair. Plus, the screen is easy to carry, with a portable design that fits snugly into a heavy-duty nylon carrying bag.

The package also includes a few smaller items, including two dozen Lite-Flite softballs, the safest practice balls ever made. Compatible with any Jugs pitching machine, the balls can be used at normal hitting distances, yet won't bruise the hitter should he or she lean into a pitch. Finally, the Lite-Flite package comes with a lightweight and portable home plate and a Lite-Flite drill book for instruction.

Designed to work indoors and outdoors, the Lite-Flite machine itself weighs only 35 pounds, while the pitching screen checks in at 4 by 6.5 feet (W x H). The package includes the following warranties: one year on the Lite-Flite pitching machine, five years on the pitching screen frame, and two years on the diamond mesh netting.
