our story

HOME STAND is a kid-owned, family-managed business based in Miami, Florida.

The idea began with Tyler J. Rodriguez, a 12-year-old baseball player who was tired of using tape on a wall or chair to mark a strike zone while playing Wiffle Ball with his friends. Tyler shared his idea with his dad—he wanted a fun, custom, and personalized strike zone they could use in the backyard. On Christmas morning in 2019, mom and dad surprised Tyler with his very own customized strike zone.

That moment sparked everything.

built during covid

During the COVID quarantine, Tyler and his dad played Wiffle Ball every afternoon until sundown. One day, Tyler asked,
“Dad, why don’t we build some of these and sell them to my friends?”

Mom and dad were all in. What started as backyard fun quickly became a powerful teaching moment—an opportunity for Tyler to learn firsthand what it takes to create, run, and grow a business.

HOME STAND was born.

Why The Home Stand Name?

To choose the name, we dug into a baseball glossary and narrowed it down to three finalists: Home Stand ,Down the Pipe, and Batter Up.


We chose Home Stand because the name and meaning perfectly reflect the product’s purpose—bringing the game home.
