Mobile, portable and affordable, the app doesn't add an ounce to a scout's bag - it adds an app to the iPhone. This is a time saving, game changing innovation for scouting! Using the speed and computing power of iPhones (and iPads) this app allows anyone involved in evaluating baseball talent to be more efficient and productive in their work -- saving time with everything from gathering player contact info, to grading players and generating reports. Time saved means more time for "eyes on the field" scouting prospects in game situations. The app moves at the pace of the game, and in-synch with how scouts "scout" at the ballpark. The app is a 24/7 scouting assistant, powering your iPhone/iPad to manage player data and preference lists for position players and pitchers. The app is also a "game changer" for Pitch Charting, simplifying pitch-by-pitch data input, automating data analysis, and reducing report writing to the push of a button. The app is mobile and can be used by scouts, coaches and recruiters at every level of baseball, anywhere-anytime. At $9.99 per month this app is invaluable for anyone involved in the evaluation of baseball talent.

Hitting Approach provides a simple way to track the pitch location, pitch type (fastball, curveball, changeup), and result for all of the at bats in a baseball or softball game. Stat reports and charts are then created using this data that will show the strengths and weaknesses of each player on your team as well as your opponents. A post game QPA (Quality Plate Appearance) report and a pitching post game report are automatically generated for each player following a game. It is the player's responsibility to provide feedback on their performance in order to allow coaches to coach the players' mental approach to the game.
