Technology at Peak
HitTrax turns every rep into real data.
HitTrax is the ball-tracking and simulation system trusted by MLB clubs, college programs, and training academies nationwide — and Peak Performance Baseball and Softball runs two HitTrax systems, alongside radar technology, in our cages here in Eagle River. Hit, pitch, and catch with instant metrics and video on every single rep.
Why we train on it.
Feel is subjective. Numbers aren't. HitTrax gives athletes and coaches a shared, honest picture of what's actually happening in the box.
Every swing and pitch is measured the moment it happens, so adjustments come in real time instead of days later.
High-speed video clips are automatically recorded and matched to the metrics from that exact rep for side-by-side review.
Session reports and trend tracking show whether the work is actually moving the numbers over weeks and months.
Simulated games and leaderboards turn cage work into competitive at-bats that keep athletes locked in.

HitTrax doesn't just measure — it plays. Athletes take live simulated at-bats with real outcomes, scoreboards, and box scores projected in front of them. Batting practice becomes a game situation, and game situations are where players learn how they respond under pressure.
