BatBox, a Topgolf-style baseball simulator venue, is opening its first U.S. location

in Addison, Texas (just outside of Dallas).
Jaxon and Brayden will now have the opportunity to practice all year round.
But on a more serious note, I believe this will be very successful.

I think Japan has had them for a while and they seem popular.

My old arse would hurt myself trying to relive the glory days of coaches pitch.

They already have these. I know Houston has a venue like this.

Golf simulators are fun

I don't know how this works --- if it is a live ball being thrown or virtual --- but if that thing can throw a strike right down the middle without the risk of me getting hit, I'd like to try to see if I can hit a pitch in the upper 90s. About the only way I would ever try something like this today.
I'm too old to risk getting clocked in my shoulder or side. Or head.

So relieved. Our area, fields are already rented out for the year. Gonna be a great practice venue for Brayden and Jaxon’s team to ensure they make it to the majors!

I just research this, and I believe it is called Home Run Dugout.

I'd like to try it. Don't expect the Landmass to get one anytime soon.

It looks like fun, but I've seen it promoted on social...dudes who have never swung a bat in their lives and the system acts like they hit it 450 feet

It’s smart, travel ball kids can practice while the travel ball parents get loaded at the bar, it’s really a win-win. Have they had an IPO yet?

Houston has one, it is a virtual pitch and the bat you use simulates the type of hot you would have. I honestly don't know how accurate it is but it was fun to go and have a few beers while taking some swings.

There is a little shoot that basically serves up a soft toss from 5 feet in front of the plate. Ball is dimpled and in between a baseball and softball in size. The distances are definitely not accurate. Fun place though.
Place in Houston even has a legit whiffle ball field set up. Place has a beer garden vibe with the hitting bays around it.

I'd prefer to have the Shuckers stadium let fans come take a few swings. Have corked bats and Japanese baseballs, and set the pitching machine to throw meatballs. See how far you can hit one.
It'll be set up to maximize distance but you'll really be hitting a ball that far.

I was hoping to see a more REAL Top Golf type setup versus a simulator type. Do like a real mockup ballpark sort of deal, with a few differing wall type configurations to swing for, versus just.a glorified batting cage.

New Orleans residents can look forward to the company expressing interest in opening a location in Orleans parish in approximately 10 years, followed by shakedowns, extortion, and demands for facilitation payments to relatives that will cause the company to look elsewhere.

So many flat bills will be worn at that place.
