I ordered a axiom 2 pitching machine off Ebay and it said it was softball adaptable. Well it only uses 9" balls. The adaptation is to lower the legs for a softball angle. My question is that the machine should still work for our girls timing even though it is for baseball? Any opinions would be appreciated.

If you can hit a 9 inch ball you can hit a 12 inch ball!

That was my thinking when I bought a Zooka pitching machine off of ebay last summer. It also uses only 9" balls. My daughter has griped a little though about it not being a softball machine. I like it because it doesn't need electricity and is easily transported. It does pitch from higher than a softball machine so I'm thinking of cutting the legs down and hope that helps....

The only thing I use a pitching machine for, is to work with the infield and outfield. So, I would need for it to throw 12 inch balls. If it was expensive and the ad was misleading, I would return it.
