Ryan Bourassa of @FirebirdsCCBL has one of the nastiest pitches on the Cape

His splitter boasts some absurd numbers:
- .091 BAA, 50% whiff rate
- 800 avg RPM, minimum 640
- 3rd lowest spin score of any pitch in the league (high velo, low spin)

Great to see the legend himself @coachk21 tonight at Phoenix Muni before the game. @FirebirdsCCBL lucky to have this guy at the helm each summer. 💪🏼

[Stephen Schoch @bigdonkey47]

Rocco Peppi hit a walk off homer for the @LBDirtbags and I can’t help but feel it has something to do with walking out to Rockstar by Nickleback

Rikuu is different

[Oregon Duck Baseball @OregonBaseball]

RIKUU! Clutch 2-out, 2-run single to give the Ducks the lead in the fifth. #GoDucks

[Johnny Davis @Johnny_Davis12]

Using batted ball data from savant, we can work to predict whether a ball in play will be a hit/out. Maybe cooler, we can work to predict the exact value we can expect from a batted ball, more on that later. For now, I made a bot that predicts Hit / Out. Check it out below:

[Johnny Davis @Johnny_Davis12]

As I finish up the xRV model, I wanted to work on some hitting data for fun. I’ll continue to update my code as I begin to include park factors and fine tune my xBA model.

I'm thrilled to share I've accepted a broadcast/media relations position with the @GoStripers (Braves AAA) for the 2023 season. Special thanks to @DaveLezotte for the opportunity.

Excited to get started! #TakeTheBait

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a midnight train to catch.

@Johnny_Davis12 @RylanDomingues @ckessinger44 I remember looking at some of the Trackman files thinking the numbers looked a little inflated, particularly Wareham home games. The rest of the machines seemed to produce accurate numbers.

Year One ✅

Thankful for everyone involved with @Cardinals, @CardsPlayerDev, and @Sgf_Cardinals!
