Jugs Lite-Flite Pitching Machine
After doing tons of research, price vs feature comparisons, and overall useability and quality reviews, I have decided that pitch for pitch and price for price this is hands down the best machine for the money. This is the perfect gift for any age player, and would certainly be a great gift for that special coach.
You can adjust the machine to throw curve balls, sliders, and fastballs. You can also adjust it to throw left and right handed pitches. Another great feature is the ability to rotate the base 360 degrees, allowing you to throw fly balls, pop ups, and grounders. And the best feature for me is the available Jugs Lite-Flite Battery Pack
Features: Light weight (35 lbs.) ~ Easy set up and break down ~ Speed adjusting dial ~ Available battery option ~ 1/8 horsepower motor ~ 30-50 mph. speed range ~ Pitches fastballs, curve balls and sliders ~ Baseball/Softball option converts in seconds

This Easton Junior batting helmet has become our #1 recommended batting helmet!
At the beginning of the last season, we let our youngest pick out his own new helmet. He went straight for the Easton Junior.

Jugs Small – Ball Pitching Machine
Do you have an up and coming player on your gift list?
This Small – Ball pitching machine from Jugs will make the perfect gift!
While we have moved on to the Jugs Lite – Flite now that our kids are older, the Jugs Small – Ball was a great tool that we used when they were starting out. It can be used indoors or out…Just watch the lamps & pictures!
The balls are “spongy”, so there is no worry about getting hit by a pitch. This allows young hitters to improve their swings and get comfortable while batting. We still have ours set up in the garage so we don’t miss out on any batting practice due to bad weather.
The machine also comes with an automatic ball feeder that can be loaded with up to 25 balls that will release a pitch every 5 seconds. This is perfect for getting in some extra batting practice on your own. You can also pitch the balls one at a time.
This awesome pitching machine will give you years of fun for the whole family!

I’m not a baseball fan and know nothing about sports but these ideas are very creative Jeremy, thanks for sharing! I could borrow some ideas for my friend’s birthday 😉
Hey Riaz. Thanks for stopping by. I’m sure your friend would enjoy some of these ideas. Stop back by if I can ever give you a hand with anything. ~Jeremy
Baseball definitely has evolved from the time I played all of the time. I love this blog!
Thank you Fred. Baseball is always evolving, yet never really changes. That’s why I love it. Thanks for dropping in and if you ever need a hand with anything I’ll be happy to help. ~Jeremy
Wow! These baseball gift ideas are awesome! A definite bookmark website for me- great info!
Hi Jeremy. I really like the ideas you have listed for gifts, especially the Super Stadium Baseball Game. We’ve got two nephews that would enjoy that for Christmas. Got to show my husband! You’ve got some very unique items here, love it!
Hi Michelle. The super stadium game was a huge hit with the kids. The 2 youngest will play this game for hours. We got a little creative and played a whole mini season with playoffs and a world series. Lots of fun! Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you again soon. ~Jeremy
As an avid baseball card collector I can definitely say to your other readers that collecting baseball cards is quite fun and rewarding, especially when you buy them by the box instead of the pack. When you spend like $19.99 and up for a box instead of a $2.00 pack, you are guaranteed to get good cards whether it be an Autographed card or a card with a piece of Game Used Bat or Game Worn Uniform. Plus buying by the box will give you a ton of Insert and Rookie cards too! I have never lost money buying by the box and it is a GREAT gift idea!
The autographed baseball is another great gift idea as long as it comes from a reputable source like the one you listed PSA/DNA, and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. You cannot go wrong with an autographed baseball from a baseball legend!
Hey Robert. I know what your saying about buying cards by the box. Some of my favorite cards have come from big box sets like the one above. Often times you can find 1 card that is worth more than the price of the whole set.It’s like getting 999 free cards.:) And you are correct: never buy any memorabilia without the C.O.A. Thanks for dropping in and be sure to look for updates. ~Jeremy
Genius!
What great gift ideas for dad.. He isn’t just a baseball fan, but lightly obsessed.
He will drop when he sees the baseball stadium game.
Thanks a million Jeremy!
Hi Damien. I’m going to borrow your term “lightly obsessed”, I love it!
The stadium baseball game has been a big hit. I have given it as a gift several times with no complaints yet. Thanks for visiting and stop by any time. ~Jeremy

Hey Craig. I love the Jugs pitching machine. The versatility is really just unmatched, especially in this price range. The best feature for me is the ability to go cordless. I know your son will really love the super stadium game, and learn some fundamentals along the way. Thanks for dropping by. ~Jeremy
