VISUAL TALLY OF "HARD" PICKOFFS - and "foul ball chart"
Posted: Tue Feb 17, 2015 8:46 am
I would love to have a "tally" of pickoff attempts and 100% hard thrown pickoffs added to the main page with pitch count. I consider a hard throw quick pickoff as an "added pitch" for MY kid pitchers in pitch count but there is no way of visualizing that minus a hand clicker in the dugout. I realize not a lot of coaches think about this but if a kid makes 10 hard picks in a game I am going to pull him sooner and would love a way to have that displayed (so in the pickoff attempts the "pickoff attempt" as an option and "HARD (or similar) pickoff attempt" as another option to score.
Another thing --- it's fun to have the foul ball chart available but it is really kind of worthless in that it never shows up anywhere. I think where it would be great fun is to add it to the "iscorecast" ---- online. So that those watching away from the field would see the graphic of where the foul ball goes just like they see where a base hit goes. It would add to the "being there" feel for those unable to attend.
I think that would be a great add. Otherwise, it's kinda silly. Maybe a "foul straight back" button too cuz it's hard to say "line drive foul" (which it really isn't) and chart it when the foul goes straight back into the screen.
