✓ Authorized JUGS Dealer — ships brand-new from Tualatin, Oregon with the full JUGS guarantee

The JUGS Lite-Flite Machine has been a long-running fixture in baseball and softball training since its introduction in 2003, with the majority of units sold still in use today. It offers realistic pitching action at an accessible price point, throwing left- and right-handed curves, sliders and fastballs for both baseball and softball.

A swivel-design base provides 360-degree movement to simulate fly balls, pop-ups and ground balls, while the Always-See-The-Ball delivery system gives hitters an unobstructed view from machine to hitting zone for better tracking and timing. The Switch-and-Play Knobs allow quick changeover between baseball and softball, and the Pitch Selection Knob adjusts for a range of right- and left-handed pitch types.

Weighing only 35 pounds and powered by a 1/8-horsepower, 1.3 amp motor, the machine is portable and easy to move between fields or hitting stations. An optional rechargeable battery pack is available separately for up to 3 hours of continuous cordless use. It is compatible with 11-inch and 12-inch Lite-Flite softballs, Lite-Flite baseballs, JUGS Multi-Use Practice Baseballs and Softballs, and JUGS BULLDOG polyballs, making it suitable for youth leagues, high schools, colleges and hitting facilities.
