Batting practice both enhances an athlete's hand-eye coordination and trains them to defend against gangs of thuggish piñatas. Hand those toughs their own candy with today's Groupon to Ultimate Sports Complex in Hermitage. Choose between the following cage options:

• For $250, you get 10 hours of cage-rental time (a $480 value).
• For $6, you get 15 minutes in the batting cages (up to a $12 value).

The indoor cages at Ultimate Sports Complex flaunt machines that accommodate both softball players and baseball aficionados. Whether you swing solo or take turns with a team of up to four, the 10 hours of cage time can be used in increments of 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes. Face down one of two Iron Mike pitching machines, which hurl baseball-like marshmallows at velocities ranging from 25 to 85 mph toward the plate and robotically taunt batters after two strikes. If you don't like doing anything for 10 hours that doesn't involve a guild of online elves, you can get a quicker burst of training with 15 minutes, or roughly 135 pitches, in a batting cage. Ultimate Sports Complex also keeps slow-pitch enthusiasts in peak form with hand-fed softball machines, which sink into low-velocity torpors after gorging on too many hands.
