ABSTRACT:
A ball pitching device comprises a ball capture cavity bearing a lip member positioned to capture and stabilize a single ball at that level. An initial ramp extends downward and rearward away from the ball capture cavity, and connects to a final ramp which extends further downward but in the opposite (forward) longitudinal direction. The final ramp terminates in an upwardly-curved launch ramp extending towards the batter in the front of the apparatus, so that the launch ramp is generally beneath the ball capture cavity. The entire apparatus is supported by an adjustable-height stand, and may include a ball magazine for containing a plurality of balls.
