ABSTRACT:
An improved baseball pitch simulator batter training device comprised of a plurality of portable, height adjustable and individually placable standards supporting sequencing lights of approximate baseball size which are capable of being placed and timed in a manner to simulate the path speed, location, movement and visual appearance of various types of pitches traveling from the pitcher's release point to the ideal bat-ball contact point at home plate. These pitches could be fastballs or breaking balls from either a right-handed or left-handed pitcher as determined by the user and remain in that exact location until changed. By using a specially adapted bat, a full swing can be taken or the batter can select more specific learning variations, other than a full swing, that are offered by the nature of this device. In addition, at the precise instant the bat-ball contact light is illuminated, a sound device is activated as an added learning tool to aid the batter's perception of his timing.
