Pitching Charts: Tips On Charting Baseball Pitchers

Charting pitchers is an important part of the learning process that takes place during the baseball season. If you're a coach and not charting the pitchers on your staff, you should start doing so. It can be a great learning tool.

The pitching chart gives a pitch-by-pitch statistical analysis of a pitcher's performance in a game. There are several ways coaches and players can use pitching charts during the course of the season to track progress and improve performance. For instance, during the game, pitching charts can be a helpful tool to help pitchers determine what pitches to throw to the hitters they face in the next inning. After a game, pitchers and coaches can go over the charts to learn from any successes or failures they may have had during the game.
