An air mattress has a resilient front panel, an opposed rear panel and at
least one interior panel extending therebetween dividing the mattress
into ball and strike chambers. A ball air valve attached to the rear
panel at the ball chamber activates in response to a predetermined
pressure increase in the chamber occurring in response to deflection of
the front panel at the ball chamber. A strike air valve attached to the
rear panel at the strike chamber activates in response to a predetermined
pressure increase in the chamber occurring in response to deflection of
the front panel at the strike chamber. Signaling devices alert when a
strike or ball air valve activates informing a user whether a pitch is a
ball or a strike.
