🚨 The Hitting Log Beta is LIVE! 🚨 After months of building, rebuilding, testing, and obsessing over every detail, The Hitting Log is finally ready for beta testing. This isn't just another stat-keeping app. It's built to help hitters actually understand why they're succeeding (or struggling) by tracking things like: - 📊 Traditional stats - 🎯 Pitch locations - 🔥 Hard-hit balls - 📈 Heat maps - ⚾ Spray charts - 💡 Advanced analytics that actually matter for player development I'd love your help making it as good as it can possibly be before the public launch.

Every piece of feedback helps make the app better before thousands of players start using it. www.thehittinglog.com Promo Code: SKOOL I genuinely appreciate everyone willing to help. This app exists because I wanted a better way to develop hitters, and having knowledgeable baseball and softball people test it before launch is incredibly valuable. Thank you all! ⚾❤️

These are the THREE body positions we get to on defense: 1. Ready Position : the body position achieved before the ball is hit, in general, the closer the defender is to the hitter, the lower and wider they are. 2. Fielding Position: the body position achieved when a defender is fielding/catching the ball, it is dependent on the type of ball hit, the position played , and the defensive situation. 3. Throwing Position: the body position achieved when a defender is prepared to throw, this can also changed based on the position played and defensive situation.

Use our Ball Player's Dictionary to learn new terms and get definitions for some of the most talked about parts of offense and defense. We will use the dictionary to clean up our verbiage and make sure we are on the same page as all of you!
