Pitchers utilize HitTrax© to measure metrics such as pitch velo, pitch location, horizontal/vertical late break, and even opposing batting average. Matched with high-speed video capture, athletes can review their form and body movements, identifying their strengths and weaknesses before stepping onto the field.

Catchers can also get in on the action by measuring their speed and accuracy, pop time, arm strength, and calculated outcome of the throw at 2nd. High-speed video also enables in-depth review of foot placement and other nuances that greatly influence the aim and power behind the throw.

Using a tagging system for pitch type, data can be catalogued for post-session analysis, illustrating the effectiveness of various pitches. For additional insight, add a series of batters to a pitching session to truly see how your pitch arsenal stacks-up when there’s someone in the box.

As catchers see the realtime results of their throws, adjustments can be made immediately and intuitively. This leads to positive reinforcement of body movements, leading to muscle memory. This is a difference maker when getting behind the plate and inherently knowing what throwing a bullet to second feels like.
