Pitching Machines in the 80′s
A little story about pitching machines…After the mid-70′s, Pablo Machado, who was then the owner of the team decided to take the eagle to become the Rieleros de Aguascalientes , in the early 80′s the team returned back to Port Veracruz , and during that span was the ninth in its ranks the likes managers Pazos Fernando Sosa, “Beto” Avila and Carlos Sosa Lagunes, but the team went unnoticed until the season of 1986 , when then Evelio Brito, team owner dismantled the same mid-season to finally disappear at the end of that campaign.
Stressed during this period the likes of: George Brunet , Blas Santana , Fernando Elizondo , Vicente Palacios and Hector Madrigal , among others.
And that’s the thing. No batter or pitching er in the history of baseball became great without using pitching machines. These accessories for baseball are the backbone of this sport.
