ABSTRACT:
A practice device to practice baseball pitching has a home plate, and a batter dummy adjacent to the home plate so the pitcher can get accustomed to the presence of a batter. The batter dummy has marks to indicate the strike zone. The batter dummy can be shortened or lengthened to suit the pitcher and to give wide experience. The dummy is inflatable for light weight and ease of installation; and, the dummy has three separately inflatable compartments so only a portion of the dummy must be inflated at one time. Portions of the dummy have accordion folded sections to change the length, and a strap to fix the length of the accordion folded section. The dummy is fixed to a mat by hook and loop fasteners, so the dummy can be placed as desired for training, the mat including the simulation of home plate.
