Details
The Champro Z-Screen (NBZ2) is a field-grade pitcher's protective screen built for coaches and programs at every level of baseball and softball who need a versatile, easily portable barrier that protects pitchers throwing either overhand or underhand during batting practice -- a critical feature for programs that train both baseball pitchers and fastpitch or slowpitch underhand pitchers from the same equipment. The distinctive Z-shaped frame design creates a shielded throwing path regardless of release point, the reversible configuration accommodates both right-handed and left-handed pitchers, and the durable 1.5-inch, 18-gauge steel tube frame with 45-ply netting delivers reliable on-field protective performance in a lighter, more portable package than the heavy-gauge BRUTE NBZ Screen. Available at SPC Sports.
The unique Z-shaped frame geometry is the defining feature of the NBZ2 -- unlike a standard L-screen designed exclusively for overhand baseball pitching motions, the Z shape creates a protective shield that accommodates both overhand and underhand throwing motions, making the NBZ2 the practical single-screen solution for programs and facilities that train baseball pitchers throwing overhand alongside fastpitch and slowpitch pitchers throwing underhand without needing separate screens for each throwing motion.
The reversible design allows the screen to be flipped and repositioned to provide full pitcher protection whether the batting practice pitcher throws right-handed or left-handed, eliminating the need for a coach or facility to own and store separate screens for each combination of throwing hand and throwing motion.
The durable 1.5-inch, 18-gauge steel tube frame provides a lighter-gauge structure than the heavy BRUTE NBZ while still delivering the stability and rigidity needed to stay planted through on-field batting practice sessions without tipping, shifting, or losing its shape across a full season of regular field use.
The 45-ply netting delivers reliable ball containment and protective coverage for on-field batting practice use at the velocities and contact frequency of field practice sessions -- a more forgiving net design than the heavy-duty 60-ply BRUTE construction that is optimized specifically for the higher-velocity demands of batting cage use.
Easy pushpin assembly makes the NBZ2 fast to set up and break down without tools, so coaches and facility staff can deploy the screen at the start of batting practice and pack it away at the end without complicated assembly procedures or hardware.
At 29.60 lbs the NBZ2 is dramatically lighter than the BRUTE NBZ at 46.30 lbs, making it meaningfully easier for a single coach to transport, reposition between practice stations, and break down at the end of on-field practice sessions without assistance.
This product comes with a 1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.

How does the NBZ2 Z-Screen differ from the BRUTE NBZ Screen? Both screens share the same reversible Z-shaped design that protects pitchers throwing overhand or underhand, for both right and left-handed pitchers. The NBZ2 uses a lighter 18-gauge steel frame and 45-ply net weighing 29.60 lbs for on-field batting practice use. The BRUTE NBZ uses a heavier 13.5-gauge frame and 60-ply net weighing 46.30 lbs for batting cage use. Choose the NBZ2 for field practice portability and the BRUTE NBZ for batting cage durability.
Can the NBZ2 be used for both fastpitch and slowpitch underhand pitching? Yes. The unique Z-shaped design is specifically engineered to protect pitchers throwing underhand, making the NBZ2 suitable for fastpitch and slowpitch batting practice sessions in addition to overhand baseball pitching.
Is the NBZ2 reversible for both right and left-handed pitchers? Yes. The reversible design allows the screen to be flipped and repositioned to provide full pitcher protection whether the batting practice pitcher throws right-handed or left-handed, regardless of whether they are throwing overhand or underhand.
