Your data analyst, right in your pocket. NextPitch replaces the clipboard. Tap the pitch location, tap the result, get instant grading, for your pitchers, your hitters, and the team you're facing. Built for programs that can't justify a $10k analytics platform and a full-time analyst. JUCO, college, and high school baseball and softball programs who still deserve real data. WHAT YOU GET • Live pitch charting for games and bullpens, instant grading after every pitch • Full analytics history, command trends, tendencies, patterns that actually explain performance • Hitter analytics for your own lineup, every at-bat tracked • Opponent scouting, know what you're facing before you face it • Automatic email reports after every outing • Web portal analytics, accessible from anywhere WHY IT'S DIFFERENT ERA and batting average tell you what happened. NextPitch tells you why. The same level of insight teams pay analysts for, on a phone, in a couple taps. MY STORY I pitched at UC Riverside. Every outing, someone was stuck on a clipboard trying to chart pitches by hand, and the data went nowhere after the game ended. I built NextPitch myself, as a senior in college, because that didn't make sense to me anymore. I still run it myself today, so if you ever have a question, you're texting me, not a support queue. Free to start. Coach plan unlocks full history, hitter analytics, and opponent scouting. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
