See what the next few batters have done

Post by Coach Bill » Sun May 02, 2010 7:11 am

iPad version 2.70.89

My coach keeps asking me: What did the next batter do? This is usually while I am in the middle of recording an out and moving the baserunners along. I would like to see the extra space on the right of the field view contain something like:

- Show the next 2 or 3 batters with the short version of what they have done (Ks, Single, BB)
- Extra bonus points if you can make the player line a link to the spray chart for that hitter. The chart would pop-up and be dismissed by a Close button or maybe temporarily change the field to show the spray chart for 2 seconds and then revert back.

While I'm at it, it also be nice to be able to touch something to bring back the spray chart for the current batter. Once the first pitch of the AB is recorded, there is no way to review what they did in their prior at-bats.

The product is FANTASTIC!

FTM will have to respond on the feature request..

But to see the current batters spray charts, (even after the first pitch of the at bat) tap on the ball/strike count, it will toggle on/off the current batters spray chart.
(definately works on iPhone/iTouch, I think part of iPad too)

All you need to do is tap the area where it would show the "0 for 2" for the batter, and it rotates through the scatter charts for the batter. If they have had previous at bats this game, it would show their previous at bat chart, tap again to see the historical chart, tap again to make it go away.

You can actually tap any player in the lineup to bring up the Player Card with the hit charts on the iPad version... instant access to any player.

Is this same functionality available on the iPhone? If not, could it be implemented?

On the iPhone, click batter, then click the arrow next to the player you want to see the chart for, then click Player Card at the bottom left. A few more steps, but you can get to the data. There just isn't enough space on the screen to see everything that is available on the iPad version.
