"Power Bolt" Pitchbacks Recalled
 
 

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with Hierarch Enterprises Co., of China, has announced a voluntary recall of approximately 57,000 Power Bolt" Y-Frame and Ultimate Y-Frame Adjustable Pitchbacks due to Dick's Sporting Goods reporting three incidents of finger/hand laceration injuries.

This recall involves the Power Bolt Y-Frame Pitchback and Y-Frame Ultimate Pitchback. The products' Y-shaped metal frames have attached netting which will return a thrown ball to the user. The upper portion of the frame is adjustable to allow a variety of rebound angles. However, the upper portion of the frame can collapse after both locking pins are removed, posing a laceration hazard.

For additional information, contact Dick's Sporting Goods toll-free at (866) 677-4771 between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday; e-mail at  Customer.Service@dcsg.com; or visit the firm's Web site at  www.dickssportinggoods.com
