Abstract: A low profile, baseball training aid device to provide a proper target for the pitcher and a positioning aid for the catcher receiving the pitcher's throw. The device, preferably fabricated of a thermoplastic material, comprises a base section mounting a pair of side sections, where the side sections define pitching locations within and outside the ‘strike’ zone to thereby provide a more precise targeting location for the pitcher. In a preferred embodiment, the side sections may be provided with a color distinguishable surface to visually distinguish the respective side sections from the base section.
