Product Overview
The JUGS PS50 Pitching Machine is designed as an introductory-level machine for young players learning to hit at game-like speeds, covering a range of 15-50 mph with a digital speed display for precise control.
It includes separate delivery chutes for baseball (9 in.) and softball (12 in.), along with adjustable Quick-Snap legs that replicate authentic pitch angles and release points for each sport. The patented Always-See-The-Ball delivery system helps hitters track pitches from release to impact.
Built with steel construction and weighing 50 lbs, the PS50 is portable thanks to its grip-and-go handle and plugs into any standard 110V AC outlet, requiring no generator. It is compatible with a wide range of balls including Sting-Free dimpled/seam baseballs and softballs, Lite-Flite balls, LeatherLast softballs, and JUGS Pearl baseballs.
