Rapsodo
Baseball has taken steps towards incorporating technology into the game, like the Rapsodo. The Rapsodo provides instant feedback including: velocity, spin rate, pitch break, spin efficiency and more. This is why we have taken the initiative to incorporate this technology into our training. Bullpens are thrown using the Rapsodo to allow your athlete and our coaches to engage in collaborative improvement, thus maximizing your athlete’s potential. From there, our coaches are able to provide feedback on pitch design, release angles and more. You can use this data later to study on your own or send to scouts by creating a profile in our database. Call to schedule your bullpen today!

Velocity
True Spin Rate
Spin Rate
How fast a pitch is traveling during flight, measured in miles per hour (MPH).
Spin Rate
True Spin Rate
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.
True Spin Rate
True Spin Rate
Spin Efficiency
The spin directly impacting the movement of a pitch. Also known as "useful spin," it is perpendicular to the direction the ball is traveling, deflecting the otherwise straight horizontal and vertical path of the ball.
Spin Efficiency
Spin Efficiency
Spin Efficiency
The percentage of spin directly impacting the movement of a pitch. Spin efficiency is the ratio of true spin to total spin.
Spin Direction
Spin Efficiency
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.
Pitch Break
Spin Efficiency
Spin Direction
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.
Release height
Release height
Release height
The height of the ball at the point of release.
Release Angle
Release height
Release height
The vertical angle at which the ball was released out of the hand.
Release Side
Horizontal Angle
Horizontal Angle
The distance away from the center of the rubber from the left (-) to the right (+).
Horizontal Angle
Horizontal Angle
Horizontal Angle
The horizontal angle the ball was released out of the hand from the left (-) or the right (+).
