About the Project
Scorekeeping can look intimidating from the outside. I felt that way too. Then I tried it, and it completely changed how I watch baseball.
This site takes live game data and fills in a traditional scorecard automatically. You can follow along while watching or listening to a game, learn how plays get recorded, or use it as a reference alongside your own scorebook.
The goal is to make that first step easier and get more people scoring games.
This is not a replacement for keeping score by hand. That's the art. This is a way in.
Scorebook Downloads
Here are a few scorecards I've found to help you get started. Most are free to download and print at home. Your local library will also have printers you can use if you don't have one. I have no affiliation with any of these.
