Glove Tracking is coming to the BaseballCV repo! While previously not open-source, Carlos Marcano, Dick Allen Stan and I are finally making the model weights / training info public. We’re still working on adding images and further fine-tuning (especially for the ball), but enjoy what we have so far!
🚨 Special guest Jessica Brand 🚨 Aside from being a stats LEGEND, Jessica is a Baseball Reference ambassador, and a former researcher for MLB Network. We talked deadball era, how the Pirates got their name, and creating the Immaculate Grid rarity score. youtu.be/yS3V0gaX_Yg
Happy birthday, Ariel Epstein! Thanks always for being a positive light in this world. One of the first to have me believe in me. Hope it's a truly spectacular day to say the least. :)

Lou Bierbauer walked so Paul Skenes could run. No… really… Lou Bierbauer is literally the reason the Pirates are called the Pirates. Thanks for the story, Jessica Brand, and the awesome Immaculate Grid pull. 🔥

To Michael Kay's point about 8 runs with 2 outs getting it done: Over the last 50 years, entering tonight's game, the #Yankees are 107-4 in the regular season in games scoring 8+ with two outs. #RepBX
Since the save became an official stat in 1969, Marcus Stroman has just the 11th #Yankees player season to start 25+ games in a season and also record a save. Most recent: Chien-Ming Wang, 2006. #RepBX
