# Home Run Dugout

> Home Run Dugout (HRD) is a sports bar, beer garden, and watch-party destination in Katy, TX (Greater Houston) — lots of TVs and a big screen showing every Astros, Texans, Rockets, and college game, a full-service American restaurant, a craft cocktail and beer bar, and one of the largest outdoor beer gardens in Katy overlooking a lit baseball field. It also has high-tech indoor batting bays with proprietary ground-up soft-toss pitching machines and augmented-reality gameplay — the one thing no other Katy bar has. A seasonal pop-up runs at Cooperstown All-Star Village (Oneonta, NY) during the 2026 youth baseball tournament season.

## Technology

The proprietary ground-up soft-toss pitching machine pitches from below the plate at a soft, predictable angle so guests don't need helmets and there are no foul balls. Hits are tracked for exit velocity, launch angle, distance, and direction; results are displayed in real time on screens that can simulate any major-league stadium. Each session is up to 120 minutes.
