A Mission To Bridge The Gap
In our technologically driven era, we’ve put the power of scoring baseball games into the hands of parents and fans, which is a great way to follow a team remotely. However, we’ve identified a gap between the convenience of these technologies and fundamental knowledge required for accurate scoring. Our mission is to bridge this gap, ensuring coaches, fans and players receive accurate statistics, ultimately elevating the overall game experience!
