The ♯1 and best way to learn and love baseball™
5-Pitch Plucky® is getting more adults, kids, and families INTO the game. You can't get any more baseball than this.™
What is 5-Pitch Plucky®
Baseball, for everyone
Same field. Same ball. Gloves, bats, bases, dugouts, and the rest, it's baseball through and through with slight tweaks.
Born from the idea that more people could be, and should be, playing baseball, 5-Pitch Plucky® has changed the game.
5-Pitch Plucky® is baseball's Pickleball. Now everyone can play.
Action-Packed
In just 80 minutes once a week, players of all skill levels, age, sex, size, or whatever improve as the love of the game grows inside. With more plate appearances (3.2 per game on average) and more defensive chances (72% of PAs result in a ball in play) than any other game or practice, it’s easy to see why we say: You can't get any more baseball than this.™
Development-rich
What makes 5-Pitch Plucky® different than any other version of baseball, or any sport for that matter, is on-field coaching. Positive instruction both at the plate and in the field helps each player improve their skills in real time.
5-Pitch Plucky® is the #1 and best way to learn and love the game of baseball™
Positively fun
This is a competitive game but, we've removed the "cut-throat" aspect. By the end of the season, you'll have quite a few more contacts in your phone.
Play just once, and you'll understand why we all put our hand in and yell "We're out here to HAVE FUN. Same team. ONE TEAM. Build up. ALL UP." before and after each game. High fives, "atta girl/boy," and cheers from the stands are annoyingly common.

"5-Pitch Plucky made baseball more fun for me. I have gotten better, felt more confident, and I like that everybody gets involved and supports each other. It feels competitive, but also positive, and that makes me want to keep coming back."

"I want to thank you so much for making 5-Pitch Plucky a fun, stress-free experience for our son. He had learned some baseball skills and training, but had never played in a game. He was reluctant because of his past stressful experiences playing organized team games.
At his first 5-Pitch Plucky game, he was a little timid, and reluctant to play. By his second game, he looked over at me from the field with a big smile on his face and yelled “I’m really enjoying this!.”
For any kid who has not had the best experience playing on a sports team, 5-Pitch Plucky puts the fun back in the game!
Thank you for rooting for these kids and working to make them better!"

"5-Pitch Plucky has been such a positive experience for our son. We have seen real growth in his confidence, his skills, and his excitement for the game. What stands out most is the camaraderie.

"My son loves 5 Pitch Plucky! He loves that he gets to rotate to every position and that he gets way more batting reps than a regular baseball game or even practice. It’s fast-paced and keeps everyone engaged while teaching fundamentals. He also decided to stop his chess class that he’s been going to for years because they were scheduled in the same day. That really says a lot."

"5-Pitch Plucky is the most incredible intro-level sports league I've seen in my son's 13 years. His confidence and skills are growing rapidly. He has more fun than he's ever had in sports, and can't wait for each week's get together. Rotating through field positions, ensuring multiple times at bat, and positive constructive coaching have made baseball his favorite part of the week. He prefers this to an iPad!"

Frequently Asked Questions
If you cannot find an answer to your question, contact CoachD@5PitchPlucky.com
So what?! If you have ever watched a baseball game then you are qualified to play. You'll love it! We've had people who have watched their kids play for years but never got on the other side of the fence who now play regularly. Kids who gave up on baseball in their early years have found 5-Pitch Plucky® to ignite their interest in playing again. Regardless of your experience or skill level, it's fun. Get INTO the game!
We haven't come across a game yet that hasn't included a cross-section of player skills, gender, age, or physical characteristics (just look at some of the photos on this website!). Some games have had 10 year-olds playing with former MLB players. Every game has been a blast for everyone.
Heck yes. Of course they can and they have a blast. There have been so many females who have played 5-Pitch Plucky® we can't keep count. We welcome anyone who wants to throw, catch, and bat.
Seasons are either 6-10 games depnding on the neighborhood. We play at the same field on the same day at the same time, making it easier to coordinate on your calendar. Games are typically four innings and run no longer than an hour and a half.
There are no practices. We show up each week for games and do our best. It's fun because it's really about the joy of the game, not the points on the board at the end. Kind of like life.
No problem. We understand busy schedules. The format is flexible so that if you can't play one game or two, we'll still field two teams and have a great time without you. We'll miss you, but we'll play without you. : )
Jump over to our [Register] page. You should also subscribe to our newsletter to get updates on camaraderies in your area.
Our youth players like to wear baseball pants so they can slide. The adults don't slide all that much so they typically wear shorts. Registered pluckers wear their reversible jerseys over a T-shirt. Cleats or tennis shoes are fine. We're out here to HAVE FUN.
Don't worry about spending money before playing, there are community gloves, helmets, and bats available at every game.
It depends. There are no bat restrictions for youth players. For adults in certain camaraderies, players will be assigned a particular type of bat so nobody gets hurt.
