Specifications: 

ball flight

Velocity

How fast a pitch is traveling during 
flight, measured in miles per hour 
(MPH).

Strike Zone Analysis

Instantly see Strike Zone feedback 
while automatically tracking Strike
Percentage and Heat Map Breakdowns.

Spin Rate

The rate at which the ball spins during 

flight, measured in rotations per minute 

(RPM). There is a stronger correlation 

between spin rate and swinging-strike 

percentage than between velocity and 

swinging-strike percentage.

Spin Direction

The tilt or angle of the baseball from 
the release point, measured in 
degrees, created by the Magnus 
effect. The Magnus Effect is created 
by the air pressure surrounding the 
spinning baseball on its path to home 
plate.

Spin Efficiency

The percentage of spin directly 
impacting the movement of a pitch. 
Spin Efficiency is the ratio of true spin 
to total spin.

Pitch Break

How much a ball has moved when it 
crosses the strike zone compared to 
what its position would have been 
without spin. Break is measured 
horizontally and vertically in inches.

3D Trajectory

The ball flight is show in two trajecto-
ries. A dotted line represents what 
the pitch would have done without 
spin and the solid line represents the 
actual movement of the pitch.

True Spin Rate

The spin directly impacting the 

movement of a pitch. Also known as 

“useful spin,” it is perpendicular to the 

direction the ball is traveling, deflect-

ing the otherwise straight horizontal 

and vertical path of the ball.
