Pneumatic ball-suspending device

A pneumatic ball-suspending device comprising:

• a base;
• a hollow post extending from the base, the post forming a batting tee;
• a source of pressurized air disposed within the base and in fluid communication with the hollow post;
• a cap formed at an end of the hollow post, the end being spaced away from the source of pressurized air, wherein the cap includes:
• inner and outer faces that are generally perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the hollow post, wherein the outer face is defined by x-, y-, and z- axes;
• at least three channels formed through the cap between the inner and outer faces, each of the at least three channels having a longitudinal axis formed through a center of a respective one of the at least three channels, each of the at least three channels having an entrance formed through the inner face, an exit formed through the outer face, and a diameter that is less than a diameter of the hollow post;
• wherein the longitudinal axis of each of the at least three channels is positioned at a non-zero and non-90 degree angle with respect to at least one of the x-, y-, or z- axes, wherein the at least three channels are not parallel to one another;
• and
• wherein the source of pressurized air forces air through the hollow post and through the at least three channels such that a ball may be supported above the air flow paths.
