Baseball batting cage

A batting cage is an enclosed cage for baseball players to practice the skill of batting. It is usually made of netting or a chain-link fence and rectangular in shape. A batter stands at one end of the cage, with a pitching machine (or less often a live pitcher) at the opposing end. The pitcher or pitching machine pitches baseballs to the batter, who hits them. The cage is used to keep the baseballs within a certain range so that they’re easy to pick up and are not lost. Batting cages are often found indoors, or where space is limited. The interior floor of a batting cage may be sloped, to automatically feed the baseballs back into the automatic pitching machine. The automatic pitching machines using sloped floors usually pitch out a synthetic baseball or softball, rather than an official leather-clad ball. Commercial batting cages pitch with several different speeds, which can range from 30 (generally softball) to 90 miles (140 km) per hour. Cricket nets, used by cricket batsmen are similar in purpose, but bowling machines are much less common than facing a live bowler (this reflects the fact that nearly half of the members of a cricket team are specialist bowlers, and therefore proportionately more bowling practice is needed in cricket than pitching practice in baseball).

is this a good baseball drill cunsecudivily?

so you take 3or 2 baseballs and throw them against a wall consecutively as fas as you can and catch them and thow them back as fas as you can
do you have any other drills you can do alone in a small room
opps i didnt mean to type consecutivly in the title
do you know a site withe other ones
person who has the most good drills wins
wins the 10 points

    Would this help with accuracy for softball?

    If I start using baseballs to practice hitting for softball in an attempt to become more accurate for batting would that work? Is it a good idea? If not why?
    Is there anything I should try doing to help with accuracy?

    Using a softball bat to practice baseball?

    I’m a 14 year old guy. Right now I play on this softball team in my small town, we just play against two other teams that are in my town. Next year I want to play on the highschool baseball team. Since I play on that softball team I bought a softball bat last summer. Usually when I practice with my friend, we use baseballs not softballs and hit them with the softball bat. I have a batting tee that I am going to start practicing with a lot. Will it mess me up if I practice swinging with the softball bat? I have a kinda heavy wooden bat, should I use that instead? Or is it really neccacary for me to buy a new baseball bat?

    Please answer

    Thanks
