If you've ever hit ground balls or fly balls to kids or grown-ups, you've hit "fungoes." Just swinging a fungo bat over and over can make you tired. But what really wears you out is picking the baseballs up off the ground. It's like having to touch your toes an extra few hundred times a week.

Now, there's the "Fango™," a rubber gizmo that fits on a fungo bat. When a ball is on the ground near you, just push the Fango™ down over the ball, and pick it right up. You're ready to hit another fungo.

Swing on!
