A classic outdoor batting cage range, Rex’s has been around since 1978 and is still a cash-only business. It’s home to eight lanes of hitting, with six of them being for baseball and two reserved for softball (one slow pitch, one fast pitch). Hitting is done off of token-operated pitching machines. Each baseball cage pitches balls at different set speeds that span from 40 to 90 MPH. Called Rex’s Baseball World on its roadside sign and located in LA’s West Athens area near I-105, the pitching machines here throw yellow dimpled balls and the cages can be reserved for various lengths of time.
