Always enjoy coming here to get some cage time in. Thanks for opening up for fall ball! They make it super easy to buy quarters as well.

Bakersfield Batting Range - Batting cage - Batting Cages Near Me - Bakersfield, California

we love coming to this batting cage. The outdoor field is what does it for me? I do not want to be in a batting cage indoors. I wanted to feel like an actual stadium. We will be going back very frequently this season. Thank you guys for being awesome. read more

Absolutely love it here, staff is great and I have a great time any time we go, not a single complaint

Okay, so of all the businesses in Bakersfield, I can honestly say that I've spent more time in my life here at the Bakersfield Batting Range than any other. It hasn't changed much in my 30+ years of visiting and using the batting cages, and that's the best part. How many other places can you go that has the same look, feel, smell and sounds that take you back to your childhood, and you can cabaret with your own kids? The staff is still very friendly, and you can't beat the cost. read more

See all

inconsistent pitching from machines never just right always too high or too low how are you supposed to practice with pitching that's not in the strike zone read more

When it comes to Batting ranges this place truly lives up to the five star "Woohoo! As good as it gets!" Yelp! rating. Your other options are limited, less reliable, more expensive and lack the character of this fixture just outside Sam Lynn Ballpark. I have frequented the Bakersfield Batting Range for about 20 years now and I can honestly say not much has changed (which is great!). The original couple that owned the place were the most underpaid babysitters I ever had! I would spend hours there before a Blaze game; swinging away with my imagination hard at work. From one day to the next it was Nolan Ryan, Orel Hershiser or Randy Johnson releasing the dimpled yellow ball my way so I could send it 60 feet into the opposing net (they were always home runs). Some of my best memories of the batting range involve the voices of Vin Scully and Rick Monday over the loud speakers painting a perfect picture of big leauge baseball while I took a crack at my own Chester Avenue dreams. For 50 cents you can step into the cage, become a kid again and dream big in one of Bakersfield's best preserved sports facilities. read more

The Bakersfield Batting Range is amazing. I love the fact that the helmets and bats are provided. All you have to pay for is the pitches which is 13 pitches for $.50, with these amazing prices my family and I were there for about an hour and only wasted about $5 each for this hour of fun!! read more

Bakersfield Batting Range - Got here early before the crowd - Batting Cages Near Me - Bakersfield, California

This batting range, located right next to Sam Lynn ball park, has been a fixture in Bakersfield for nearly 40 years. Happily, it retains its retro charm after all these years and is a fantastic place to hang out in the summer. The property is extremely well maintained, clean, and safe. There are 15 cages all together--9 baseball and 6 softball. The cages are 50 cents for 13 pitches, bats and helmets are supplied. They also do hourly rentals and birthday parties. There is also a fantastic snack bar with very reasonably-priced goodies if you get hungry after hitting all those balls. I had a great time hanging out there tonight and really think it's one of the coolest things to do in Bakersfield. Highly recommended! Note: Bakersfield Batting Range is only open in the spring and summer--usually from February to September. read more

We went to BBR for the first time last night (Wednesday night), and it was a great experience! We got $10 in quarters and between breaks and taking turns a few times, my son was able to bat for almost an hour and a half! They have a wide range of speeds to choose from, which was nice because I could start him in a 30mph cage because he'd never done this before, and then move him up for better practice. The cages can be reserved from 5:30-7:30 on weekdays and I believe 2-8 on weekends, so if it's really important to you, call ahead and reserve the speed you want, or just make sure that someone else hasn't already reserved it. The prices to reserve are pretty reasonable... $17.50 for a whole hour, so if you're particular about speed or simply don't want to have to switch out with other batters, this is a good choice. The people working there were awesome - extremely nice and explained how it all worked to me because it was our first time there. The prices were very reasonable and the bathrooms were very clean. We will definitely be returning many, many times! read more

I remember my Dad bringing me here as a kid and having a blast. I'm glad it's still around because now I get to take my kids here. It's great affordable family fun, you can't beat 13 balls for .50 cents and they provide bats and helmets. Food and drinks are affordable at the snack bar and the workers are really nice. I recommend this place to anyone looking to hit some balls and share some good laughs. read more

Inexpensive and convenient! What more do I need to say. This place has been here for years and there is a reason whygreat staff and great facility. read more

This place is a joke. Owners need to work on customer service. They are very rude and disrespectful. I wouldn't go back here if it was life or death. The machines are junk and old as all hell. read more

I don't know all that much about batting cages in general. I mean I'm familiar with what they do and yes I have used them from time to time but I don't know what drives people to open one. There is something wholesome and antiquated about them. Usually they're coin operated which is already something of an outdated concept. The Bakersfield Batting Range has been here as long as I have been in Bakersfield and seem an inherent part of the landscape, that being said I enjoyed myself there recently. I haven't in a long time. It was fun to get out there and try to hit a 80 mph pitch to no avail as it reminds me why I haven't gotten any calls from sports agents yet. The people working there and playing there were all relaxed and seemed to bask in the Americana of it all. My only complaint is that this is an outdoor cage and sometimes that is at odds with the Bakersfield summer sun. read more

I have been going here since I was a kid. I now take my daughter for practice since she is in a softball league. The staff is very friendly. Just a good place to relax and hangout. read more
