This Pitching Counter application will allow you to track every pitch of a baseball (or softball) game by each pitcher. The intention is to track the performance of a pitcher over a game, or a season. 41 different pitching statistics are calculated using the tracked data.
Batters are calculated based on pitch outcomes. Innings are based upon outs.
Many apps out there track only what you put in. This app will track much more, to give you better insight into how your pitchers are doing. 4 balls to the same batter results in a walk. 3 strikes to the same batter results in a strikeout (assuming the 3rd wasn't a foul ball). This app will track all that!
NOTE: If you used the Pitching Counter app and are planing on using the Pro version, do NOT uninstall just yet! Rather, update to the latest release, then export all your data. Then, in the Pro version, import that same data into the Pro app.
For every pitch, any of the following can be entered, and thus tracked:
Ball
Strike – looking
Strike – swinging
Strike – dropped 3rd strike looking – out (only available when there are already 2 strikes)
Strike – dropped 3rd strike looking – safe (only available when there are already 2 strikes)
Strike – dropped 3rd strike swinging – out (only available when there are already 2 strikes)
Strike – dropped 3rd strike swinging – safe (only available when there are already 2 strikes)
