Review on Louisville Slugger Blue Flame Pitching Machine: Advanced Training Equipment for Exceptional Performance by Daniel Ogbebor

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for baseball practice

Purchased in 2012, still in use in 2019. Coached youth baseball for five years. Used this for practice. I gave it to my neighbor after my kids stopped playing baseball. He's using it now. Two things to note: #1 It's not as accurate as a regular serve machine, but it does provide a general area for the ball to travel, making it useful for younger players by offering different pitches and older helps. Trainers with bad shoulders. #2: Buy longer bottom spikes. I had to step on the base of the device while using it to ensure accuracy. After the rain, the field was wet and the device was easy to pull out of the ground. If I was coaching young players I would still use it. Also works well for popups.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Requires socket
