JUGS Softie Genuine Leather Practice Softballs

Machine-pitch softball moves fast: lots of pitches, lots of young hitters, and plenty of balls that end up off a shin or a forearm. JUGS Softie Softballs are made for that setting. A genuine leather cover and real stitching give them the grip and look of a game softball, while a soft core keeps impact low so practice stays safe. They come in Game-Ball Yellow in 11 inch and 12 inch sizes, sold by the dozen.

Built for Pitching Machine League Play

Softie softballs are the training ball used in JUGS pitching machine leagues, and they run through JUGS softball pitching machines for game-realistic reps. Hitters see a regulation-size softball coming at a realistic pace, and a pitch that misses the zone is far less likely to leave a mark.

Leather Feel, Softer Impact

The genuine leather cover and seams give a true game-like grip and bounce, which matters for fielders as much as hitters. The soft core reduces sting at contact so softball players can swing confidently through long, high-rep sessions, and it will not damage aluminum bats.

Easy to Track, Safe in Any Setting

Optic Game-Ball Yellow makes the ball easy to pick up out of the machine and off the bat during live swings and drills. A lightweight, low-impact design makes Softies a fit for indoor or outdoor training on any surface, whether that is a gym floor in February or a backyard in July.

Choosing 11 Inch or 12 Inch

Both sizes share the same leather cover, soft core and Game-Ball Yellow color. Order the size that matches the ball your league uses in games. Younger divisions often use 11 inch softballs and older divisions 12 inch, but your league rules have the final say.

Who Softie Softballs Are For

They suit backyard players, youth leagues, pitching machine leagues and high school softball programs that want a safer leather ball for drills and machine rounds.

Machines These Softballs Work In

Softie softballs feed through the JUGS BP1 Softball Pitching Machine, the JUGS Changeup Super Softball machine and the JUGS Soft Toss Machine. For a harder-hitting machine softball, compare the Sting-Free Dimpled Softballs.
