With BaseballPips, you can follow your team's story throughout the baseball season. Compare their good or bad fortune to other teams in the league and to the fate of any team's season since 1962. Display their season in a beautiful graph inspired by the iconic 2020 "History of the Seattle Mariners" web documentary. With the Live Data in app purchase, you can add a widget to your home screen that will let you keep a watchful eye on your team at-a-glance. The widget updates in near real time as games are played throughout the summer. Please note, this app is neither affiliated with nor endorsed by the team behind the "History of the Seattle Mariners" documentary. I'm just a fan.
