Over the Frame Netting Batting Cages

When you are looking for baseball batting cages, there are basically two broad choices to choose from. Standard portable batting cages that surrounds the hitter, or over the frame netting batting cages (also known as tunnel batting cages). The latter is mostly used for indoors, and is an excellent training tool for high school and college baseball teams. This type of batting cage contains the hitter, pitcher, and consequently the flying baseball within the cage. The cage net is usually draped over the frame, giving the inside maximum space for hitting baseballs. Net material is the same as most portable baseball batting cages, so the same rules apply with this material (see my post on batting cage net material). Nylon is the most popular net material for this type of batting cage, as it has a high-speed break point. These tunnel baseball cages are the only solution to indoor hitting, unless of course you are on a professional baseball team and have the whole stadium to hit.
