ESPN.com boxscores now show number of pitches thrown to batters

I just saw this tonight and thought it was really cool. I never really wondered why they didn't have it before, but it makes perfect sense since they already track pitch count for pitchers.

You can really see who's working the pitching staffs this way...and they conveniently add up to a high-scoring basketball game's worth of points

lol true true, idk. they seem to go to far and forget the stuff they should have done yrs ago. i mean they have pitch release and final result speed.

yea i agree pitch count is important as well as picthes per atbat, it tells u whether the pitchers struggling or not , especially if u cant watch the game
