Josh Beckett 2009 Pitching Gamelogs - Baseball-Reference.com
If you look at the 2009 (and eventually the 2008) pitching gamelogs you will see that the pitch count columns are now links. Clicking there will take you to the BrooksBaseball.Net summary page for that game where you can see things like velocity, location, and much much more in graphical and text formats. I am working with Dan Brooks on a couple of projects and this is the first step in bringing some of this pitch information to the site. Hope you enjoy it.

This is going too far!
I like stats but this is taking all the fun out of the game and just covering it with too much useless stuff.
Just because you guys can do something, it doesn't mean you should!
(What ever happened to the good ol' days when plain "batting average" was king of the stat world?)

I'll agree that sometimes a lot of new information can be numbing. But if you're not interested, just don't click those links. I'm not sure how you can describe qualitative data about the actual pitches thrown as "useless."

I'm thinking (hoping?) that Dave had his tongue firmly planted in cheek. If not, as Johnny said, you don't need to click on the links.

You post a lot of goodies in here and I appreciate it! I play a lot of Diamond Mind baseball and have made many great contacts through Delphi Forums Diamond Mind forum. One of the regulars recently played a game with a linescore where the two teams scored exactly the same number of runs in the same inning, i.e. first inning they both were scoreless, second inning they both scored one run, third inning they borh scored 3 runs, etc. His question was if any of us on the forum knew what the MLB record was for the highest scoring extra inning game were both teams had exactly the same inning-by-inning linescore up through the inning before the game was decided. I told him I thought Baseball Reference's Play Index could find an answer. Can you or any of the regulars who post here answer that question for us???
