Attack Angle

Attack Angle is the angle of the bat's path, at impact, relative to horizontal. A positive value indicates swinging up, and a negative value indicates swinging down, where zero is perfectly level.

Bat Speed

Bat Speed is the observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

Blast Factor

Blast Factor is a convenient measuring stick for tracking your overall improvement and it's a fun way to compare your swing to professionals, other teammates, or friends.

Body Rotation

In a baseball swing, the resultant Bat Speed is a combination of both body and bat rotations.

Connection at Impact

Connection (at impact) measures the relationship between your body tilt and vertical bat angle at impact.

Connection Score

Scores your Early Connection and Connection (at impact) for each swing on the scouting scale of 20-80.

Early Connection

Early Connection measures the relationship between your body tilt and vertical bat angle at the start of the downswing.

On Plane

The On Plane metric measures the percentage of your swing that the sweet spot of the bat is considered to be On Plane.

On Plane Efficiency

Measures the percentage of your swing where the bat is on the swing plane.

Peak Hand Speed

Peak Hand Speed is the observed maximum speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat).

Plane Score

Scores your On Plane Efficiency for each swing on the scouting scale of 20-80.

Power

The average Power generated during the swing is found from the effective mass of the bat, the Bat Speed at impact, and the average acceleration during the downswing.

Rotation Score

Scores your Rotational Acceleration for each swing on the scouting scale of 20-80.

Rotational Acceleration

Rotation measures how quickly your bat accelerates into the swing plane.

Swing Quality

Learn how you can improve your swing quality by focusing on plane, connection, and rotation.

Time to Contact

Time to Contact is the elapsed time between start of downswing and impact.

Vertical Bat Angle

Vertical Bat Angle is the angle of the bat with respect to horizontal at the moment of impact.
