    Hi I have a Williams pitch and bat machine I wanted to add more power to the bat.The coil is A H 23 870 can I replace it with a stronger coil . If so is there a number for the coil .

    Most likely the bat is weak because things are gummed up, or the linkage is worn out.

    Before you start to change out the coil, take everything apart and clean. Also, possibly put a new sleeve in the coil.

    As a last resort, you can take a few windings off your current coil to get more power. I personally would not go crazy and take too many off though.

    But, honestly, do the first part and clean and tighten up the mechanics and you probably will be good

    Agree with the clean and new sleeve tip. Also on many of the William's baseball games, 'power' to the bat is adjustable. I know it is on my 1966 'Pitch and Bat' - you simply rotate a rheostat to make it stronger or weaker.
