The Brojects build a DIY pitching machine

Sometimes what we’re in the mood for doesn’t always match up with our surroundings. So, what happens when you’re feeling particularly lazy but you still want to get in some batting practice? Maybe going out to a batting cage sounds discouraging because you don’t feel like being surrounded by crowds, waiting in lines, or even paying for an entire hour of batting practice.

Here’s how you can get the best of both worlds with your very own at-home pitching machine. Watch as the Brojects create an at-home DIY pitching machine using a projector screen, LED lights, an old treadmill, and some ingenuity.

They transform what once was an at-home theatre, into an at-home theatre batting cage, perfect for batting practice with some buddies.
