MLB uses a system of 12 cameras positioned around each ballpark, capturing pitches at 300 frames per second, to gather detailed data for Statcast.
The upgraded camera system captures the velocity, spin rate, seam orientation, break, and more for each pitch in just half a second.
The resulting data has revolutionized the game, influencing discussions on launch angle, pitch design, and defensive alignment.
