ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method to direct and control propelled balls by attachment or placement of a guide chute in front of existing or newly manufactured ball pitching machines. If a curve ball is desired, a cantilevered resilient strap is inserted inside the guide chute and positioned to engage the propelled ball, conform to the ball surface shape and induce a ball spin resulting in a curve ball trajectory.
