Host Spotlight: Monica's Bat & Barrel Training Facility in Upland, CA

Monica built Bat & Barrel in Upland around one idea: a training space that actually feels welcoming the moment you walk in. It's one of the more complete indoor setups on CageList, and it was designed for families as much as for hitters.
The cage
This is a full indoor facility, so weather is never a factor. The equipment list is deep: baseballs and softballs, a soft-toss station, hitting tees, an L-screen, and machines across the board — a baseball pitching machine plus fastpitch and slowpitch softball machines. There are baseball and softball bullpen mounds and enough room for infield work, which makes it a real fit for pitchers and position players, not just hitters. Parents can relax in the lounge and watch, there's a restroom, sound system, and parking for up to 30. Sessions run $65/hour, with a 30-minute option available.
The host
Monica describes Bat & Barrel as "a community hub for baseball and softball families" — a place "where hard work is expected, growth is celebrated, and relationships are built." That focus on connection, not just reps, is what sets the space apart.
