Color coding pitches on speckle chart

Post by TorpedoJuice » Wed May 13, 2009 12:27 pm

For the pitch location screen a few ideas come to mind.

1) what about color coding the type pitch thrown (ie. Fastball (Red), Changup (Light Blue), etc... This would allow us to track how effective the pitcher was at throwing strikes with certain pitches?

2) what about numbering the pitches so that you could watch (replay) the location of the pitches in sequential order? ...might be helpful in post-game analysis.

3) if # 1 can't be accomplished...what about using a three color system for those balls that were called strikes...and those strikes that were called balls (third color for those that were called correctly)...this would help us analyze in-game...the umpires true "strike zone"...if # 1 can be accomplished... then come up with some sort of symbol based setting for this idea.

I'm all out of ideas for the moment...I'll try to keep them coming.

Thanks again for more good ideas. We have very similar ideas on how the pitching speckle chart can be improved on our enhancement list right now, so it is good to see these ideas reaffirmed.
