Bucket of JUGS Sting-Free Dimpled Baseballs, 4 Dozen

The Bucket of JUGS Sting-Free Dimpled Baseballs includes 4 dozen (48) dimpled Sting-Free baseballs in a bucket with a lid, in your choice of Optic Yellow (packed in a Pujols Bucket) or White (packed in a Rutsch Bucket). These baseballs are designed specifically for pitching machines. They match the 9-inch, 5-ounce size and weight of a regulation leather baseball for a realistic feel off the bat, but the sting-free construction keeps hitters' hands from stinging and the durable polyurethane will not damage composite bats. They are safe for indoor or outdoor baseball practice.

The same ball is sold by the dozen as JUGS Sting-Free Dimpled Baseballs.

Dimpled for Consistent Machine Pitches

A raised seam is a small variable every time a ball passes through pitching machine wheels. The dimpled surface on these baseballs gives the wheels the same contact on every feed, which produces more consistent spin and trajectory from pitch to pitch. For a hitter working on timing, that consistency is what turns each machine pitch into a usable rep instead of a guess. The dimples are molded into the ball, so there is no stitching to wear loose over a season of batting practice.

Realistic Feel Without the Sting

These baseballs are made to match the size, weight and rebound of a leather baseball, so contact sounds and feels close to the real thing and the ball comes off the bat on a realistic line. The sting-free formula takes the hand sting out of mishits, which matters most for younger baseball players who are still building confidence at the plate and for anyone hitting on a cold morning. Hitters who are not worried about a jammed swing stay aggressive and keep working on their mechanics.

Bat-Safe and Weather-Resistant

The balls are made from durable, waterproof polyurethane that will not damage composite bats, even with frequent use. Players can take full machine rounds with the same bat they use in games. The waterproof build also means the balls handle damp grass and outdoor sessions as well as indoor cage work.

Optic Yellow or White

Choose the color that suits where you practice. Optic Yellow is a bright color that is easy to track during hitting and fielding drills, against dark netting, indoor walls or an overcast sky. White looks like a game baseball for coaches who want machine rounds to look like what hitters see in games. The color is the only difference; the 48-ball count and the dimpled Sting-Free construction are the same.

Who the Bucket of JUGS Sting-Free Dimpled Baseballs Is For

These baseballs suit backyard players, youth leagues, high schools, colleges and hitting facilities:

  • Families with a home pitching machine who want a ball that is easy on hands and bats.
  • Youth and high school coaches running machine stations at practice.
  • College programs and hitting facilities that run machines for long sessions.
  • Players training indoors in a garage, gym or cage during the off-season.

Using Dimpled Sting-Free Baseballs

  • Use them in pitching machines; the dimpled surface is designed for machine feeding rather than gripping and throwing by hand.
  • Run the full bucket through each round so wear spreads evenly and hitters get uninterrupted swings.
  • Store the balls in the lidded bucket between sessions to keep them together and off the ground.
  • Keep a protective screen in front of the machine and whoever is feeding it, such as the JUGS Protector Series L-Shaped Screen.

If your coaches also throw batting practice by hand, the seamed version comes in the same 48-ball bucket as the Bucket of JUGS Sting-Free Realistic-Seam Baseballs.

Indoor and Outdoor Baseball Practice

Because they are sting-free, bat-safe and waterproof, these baseballs move easily between settings. In the off-season they work in an indoor cage, a gym or a garage hitting station, where Optic Yellow stands out against walls and netting. In season they go out to the backyard or the practice field, where damp grass will not soak into them the way it does with leather. Many families and teams keep one bucket that follows the machine wherever it is set up, so hitters see the same ball all year.
