Ball Lines for On Line Viewing

In that I'm keeping score, I don't get to watch the on-line play-by-play to see how it works.

But in watching the replay of the game, I notice that it is hard to see where the ball ends up on the field. The little baseball icon on the field graphic is small and hard to pinpoint. It would be nice if the browser would draw the same grounder/line drive/fly line (green and red) that we see on the app. That way, folks watching remotely get a sense of how the ball was hit.

Thanks for even having the suggestion forum. You're a cool company!

Thank you for the suggestion. Updating the iScorecast is something that has long been on our list of things we would like to do, and we hope we can get to it soon. Thank you for the suggestion.

Yes the ball tracking visibility has been on FTM radar for a while ..

@mikemen, Not sure if you know, but There are two versions of iscorecast viewers... one that uses flash based grhics and one for html based browsers..

some viewers find the HTML version more preferable... There are tradeoffs, but I suggest you try them both out sometime..

Iscorecast urls
The default viewr, looks like a big scoreboard and uses "flash" technology..
Http://iscorecast.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Alternate version for mobile devices that does not use flash (eg. iOS) and does show player pictures if you have them for players
