Analytics Overview
Playlytics turns raw game and practice data into visual analytics that coaches can act on. Analytics are available for all four areas of the game plus mechanics assessments.
Accessing Analytics
Navigate to Analytics from the bottom navigation or More menu. Select a player from the roster to view individual analytics, or view Team Analytics for aggregate stats.
Analytics Types
Pitching Analytics — heat maps, velocity trends, pitch type distribution, strikeout and walk rates, ERA
Hitting Analytics — spray chart, batting average trend, contact type distribution, hard hit rate, OBP and slugging
Fielding Analytics — fielding percentage, zone tendency polar charts, throwing accuracy, error analysis
Baserunning Analytics — stolen base percentage, caught stealing rate, per-base breakdown
Mechanics Assessments — radar charts for all four mechanics areas with phase breakdowns and trend lines
Event Type Filter
All analytics screens include an event type filter:
- All — includes game, scrimmage, team practice, and individual practice data
- Game — game data only
- Scrimmage — scrimmage data only
- Team Practice — practice data only
- Individual Practice — individual session data only
Use this filter to compare in-game performance against practice performance.
Date Range Filter
Filter analytics to a specific date range — useful for evaluating performance over a particular stretch of games or comparing before and after a training intervention.
Minimum Sample Sizes
Analytics become meaningful with sufficient data. As a general guide:
- Batting average: meaningful after 20+ at-bats
- ERA: meaningful after 10+ innings pitched
- Fielding percentage: meaningful after 20+ fielding chances
- Mechanics assessments: meaningful after 5+ sessions
