HitTrax, and the 17-foot high batting tunnels, at 9er Baseball is designed to show participants where the ball would travel, exactly or virtually (using a distance boost feature), in major league parks across the country. While batting cages offer a degree of refinement to one’s swing, you never know where the ball would go in a live session. The concept behind HitTrax is to “go beyond the cage”. In addition to the HitTrax simulator, Brooks Lawrence will offer personal training and fitness while a trained and certified baseball staff – featuring MLB draftees Teddy Lawrence, Kesselmark and Ahearne - refines your stroke, trains pitchers and offers competitive opportunities for local baseball/softball programs at affordable prices. The facility will cater to the hitting whims of every baseball/softball player throughout the region. HitTrax – the world’s first ‘Batting Simulator’ – will be presented to the area at the new hot spot and training facility: 9er Baseball & Sports Performance.

Too good to be true, right? Well, up until January of 2017, this type of virtual reality did not exist for baseball players in and about the Northern Westchester/Putnam County region.īut Mahopac’s Teddy Lawrence, a former MLB draft choice of the Detroit Tigers, and his son, Brooks, plus Putnam Valley’s Joe Kesselmark (an LA Dodgers draft pick) and Pat Ahearne (a former Detroit Tigers pitcher) took baseball technology to the next level at their new simulated sandlot in Somers, NY, in the Somers Sports Arena at 245 Route 100 (right by Froggy’s Deli). How about a joint where your baseball/softball swings were mechanically measured and your timing was accurately depicted in a manner the region is yet to experience. If you’re a local baseball/softball player of any age, your Christmas/New Year’s wish list might have included a new Easton Mako Beast or a Wilson A2000 glove, but if those things didn’t show up under the tree or weren’t among your Hanukah gifts, we may have a fallback plan that can still get you ready for the upcoming spring season. Binghamton University pitcher Cal Lawrence gets in some work at the new 9er Baseball and Sports Performance facility in Somers.
