Here’s their supplier of ping pong balls:

Toaster loves the Captain.

He’s been playing ping pong with Hoodie, biding time until the Lotto drawing. He wanted to shoot the ball out of his slot but the ball is too big and got stuck. He’s pretty good at hitting the ball with the paddle. He’s developed great eye-hand coordination using the ESPN Better Batter Baseball toy that Bwana got him.

(OK, OK ,,, So Toaster doesn’t have hands. You get the idea.)

Innovative tee-free design helps kids keep their eye where it should be when they’re learning to bat—on the ball, not the tee! This batting trainer makes learning to hit the ball fun and easy—just tap the plate to automatically load a ball. The mechanical arm drops down, picks up a ball, then raises right back to position! Sound effects, baseball “chatter” and ESPN music add to the fun! Height adjustable for peewees to preschool pros.

Toaster’s favorite sound effect is when Bwana says It’s deep, and I know it’s not playable.

But he also likes it when Stuart Scott goes Boo yah!
