Chicago,
IL -- This year’s American Baseball Coaches Association Convention
exhibit hall was
remarkable with plenty of new innovations for the game of baseball as
278 companies displayed their merchandise. The ever increasing numbers
of high tech products are a welcome sight. We are getting smarter and
accepting what the age of technology is offering.
Inside
Edge PalmScout
We continue
to be amazed at the powerful statistical program
called PalmScout which is used by a number of professional and
college programs. You simply chart the game on a Palm Pilot
at the ball park with the software provided and then bring it back
to your regular computer in the office. Once there, you bring in the
charted game to your powerful statistical analysis program.
You can call up a number of reports, such as Location Reports For
Pitchers and Hitters, Pitcher Evaluation Report, Well Hit Average Report
With Strikes, Pitch-By-Pitch Report, Pitcher Postgame Report, among many
others.
In the last
year, Inside Edge has developed the Pitcher’s Edge
report package which includes three breakthrough reports that
have helped numerous pitching coaches and pitchers.
They include the Pitcher Report Card, Pitcher Command Report
and Quality Locations Report. The Pitcher Report Card includes
26 key stats which get letter grades (A-F) by your
pitcher’s performance in a bullpen, intrasquad game or real game
and
also have the major league success percentage ?gures next to those
categories. The Pitcher Command Report features a command rating number
of all pitches thrown to gauge the overall performance.
