StatKeeper Baseball vs First Base

StatKeeper is the smartest way to run your league's stats, designed to eliminate manual work. Why rely on an official scorekeeper or waste time tallying stats on paper sheets? StatKeeper automates the entire process. Here’s how it works: During the game, managers simply open the app and log each player's at-bat with just a few taps. It's not a complicated scoring system, but an ultra-fast way to capture outs, hits, HRs, and strikeouts, completely replacing dugout paperwork. The moment plays are logged, StatKeeper does all the magic in real-time: * Compiles every player's individual stats (AVG, HR, H) at-bat by-at-bat. * Automatically generates the "League Leaders" board as stats are updated. * Calculates and updates the W-L-T Standings as soon as the game ends. * Publishes everything to a professional web portal for all to see. The perfect ecosystem for your league: * Organizers: Create the league and watch the stats run themselves. * Managers: Score the game from their phone with simple taps, no paper needed. * Players: See their stats updated right after their at-bat. It's the ultimate tool for amateur leagues that want the professional experience, without the professional-level work.

Know your team's playoff odds — and exactly what it takes to get there. First Base pulls live standings from Hot Stove, East Coast, and Tourney Machine, runs 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations, and tells you where every team stands across seasons and tournaments. Not just the raw standings — the real picture: who's in, who's on the bubble, and what needs to happen Saturday. HOW IT WORKS Refresh on game day and the app fetches the latest standings, computes playoff odds for every team, and gives you a plain-English summary of your team's situation: "Win both remaining games to clinch the top seed." No guessing. No forum debates. Just the real numbers. WHAT YOU SEE • Live standings for every team in your event • Playoff odds for every team — recomputed on every refresh • "What needs to happen" — the specific win/loss scenario that clinches or eliminates • Full schedule with past results and upcoming matchups, grouped by day • Your team's complete game timeline, past and future • Playoff bracket with results as games are posted — plus the posted playoff times and fields before the bracket is even drawn • Gold/Silver/Bronze bracket odds for tournaments that split the field into multiple championships • Color commentary — pick a booth voice (Broadcaster, Skipper, Heckler, or the Lazy Broadcaster) that reacts to your team's actual situation • Per-event notifications for schedule changes, field updates, and other team scores TIEBREAKERS DONE RIGHT The odds engine implements the real tiebreaker rules exactly: runs allowed (not run differential), head-to-head when applicable, recursive multi-team resolution, and coin toss as the final fallback. No approximations, no wrong rankings. NOTIFICATIONS (FIRST BASE PLUS) Get notified when your event's schedule is posted, when a game's field location changes, and when other teams finish games — so you always know the latest standings picture without having to check. CALENDAR SYNC (FIRST BASE PLUS) Put your team's schedule on your iOS calendar. First Base maintains a dedicated "First Base" calendar with your team's upcoming games — dates, times, and fields — and keeps it current when the schedule changes. Or do a one-time export to any calendar you choose. FOLLOW MULTIPLE TEAMS Following two kids across different events? Pin them all.
