The ProBatter PX3 baseball and softball pitching simulators will be the crown jewels at the Dingers Batting Cages training facility (located within the Escondido Mall) when it celebrates its grand opening on Sunday, March 10. There will be free pizza, raffle prizes and home run derbies. The ultra sophisticated ProBatter pitching simulator combines the latest computer and video technology to recreate the experience of facing live pitching in a closed environment. The experience is startlingly real - comparable to what an aircraft pilot experiences in a flight simulator - with an actual ball being delivered at speeds up to 100 mph. The Cincinnati Reds, New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, New York Mets and Pittsburgh Pirates have all purchased the systems to use for player training. Dedicated to teaching and developing baseball and softball players of every age and performance level, Dingers Batting Cages is designed to be a premier facility of its kind. Batting cages are available to book for birthday parties, team practices or special events with catered food options from the mall. Visit www.dingersbattingcages.com to learn more.
