Ryan Howard: 26 Home Runs in Career, pitch count of 1 – Baseball-Reference PI

Ryan Howard: 26 Home Runs in Career, pitch count of 1 - Baseball-Reference PI

I added another summary value to the Event Finders, the number of the pitch in the plate appearance where the PA ended.  So you can now do things like find all of the first-pitch groundouts in the ninth inning with your team down 2 or more and no one on.  The pitch data is solid back to 2000 and fairly complete back to 1988.  Enjoy.

    On 07-04-07 Howard hit a first pitch HR on a 3-2 count! Following a passed ball shouldn't reset the count to 0.
