High School Baseball
A scoreboard that actually understands the count.
SpreeSports Baseball is its own product — line score by inning, balls/strikes/outs, a baserunner diamond, hits and errors — not a football clock with the down box swapped for "inning." Type in two teams, run the game from the dugout fence, look like a real broadcast.
There's no import pipeline. There's also no wasted afternoon.
Baseball doesn't have the ScoreStream / MaxPreps data pipeline that football's showcase page leads with. What you get instead is a setup screen built to be filled out once, fast, and reused every time you play that opponent again.
What a traditional CG rig demands
A Ross or Vizrt engine, a designer who built the line-score grid and baserunner diamond from scratch, and an operator trained on a proprietary panel just to put a name at the plate.
What SpreeSports asks for
Two team names, two logos, two color pairs, and the jersey color they're wearing tonight. That's the whole setup screen — no roster import, no stats department.
Manual isn't the same as slow. Fill out a team once, click Save Setup, and the next time you play them, Load Setup brings back the colors, logos, and lineup card in two clicks — no re-typing, no rebuilt template.
A scoreboard built around baseball's actual mechanics
Baseball has no game clock, no fouls, no bonus, no timeouts. SpreeSports Baseball doesn't pretend otherwise — those fields don't exist in this product. What replaces them is the real scoreboard language of the sport.
🔢
Line score by inning
The classic runs-by-inning row for both teams, tracked automatically as you score each half-inning — plus the "R H E" columns every scoreboard graphic needs.
💎
Baserunner diamond
A live mini-diamond graphic reflecting who's on first, second, and third, updated with one tap per runner. No clock to manage means the scorebar's attention goes entirely to base state.
⚾
Balls, strikes, outs
The count and outs sit right on the scorebar and reset automatically between batters — the single most-referenced piece of state in a baseball broadcast, always current.
🧢
At-bat & pitching strip
Type the current batter and pitcher's name directly — no roster import required to put a name on screen. Simplest path from "who's up" to on-air text.
📉
Hits & errors per team
Tracked alongside runs for the full box-score line, and scoring-type-aware entry (single, double, triple, home run, walk) drives the right fanfare graphic for the hit.
🌧️
Pitch clock & rain delay
An optional pitch clock for levels that run one — hide it entirely for those that don't — plus a dedicated rain delay badge that swaps in for the pitch strip when weather stops play.
Everything else a broadcast needs, built in
Below the scoreboard, SpreeSports Baseball runs the same production-grade graphics layer as every SpreeSports sport — filled out manually, once, per game.
🏷️
Lower thirds & player info
Name, number, position, and a free-typed stat line for whoever's up. No roster import required — type it once, it's on screen in seconds.
📣
Fanfare & starting lineup
Full-screen fanfare on extra-base hits and home runs, plus a starting-lineup card with headshots you upload once and reuse all season.
📺
Going-to-break & station bug
A sponsor-branded break card with score and inning, and a persistent station bug that locks to the scorebar corner so it never drifts during a broadcast.
📊
Box score & team stats
End-of-game box score with the full line score, hits, and errors — operator-entered, same layout quality as a national broadcast, no spreadsheet required.
🗺️
Distance map, weather & trivia
Type two addresses and get an animated school-to-school route map. Type a zip and get a live NWS forecast card — genuinely useful for a sport rain delays every season. All manual, all fast.
📡
Cross-sport ticker
Run an ESPN-style bottom-line ticker alongside the game — your own scoring updates plus any other games you're tracking, scrolling under the broadcast the whole night.
First pitch, end-to-end
A typical first-time setup, from "I want to broadcast tonight's game" to on-air.
①
Open the controller
Sign in, spin up a new game instance. It's a browser tab — no software to install on the broadcast laptop.
②
Enter both teams
Names, colors, logos, jersey color for tonight, mascot, record. Type it once per team.
③
Set the game rules
Regulation innings (7 for some HS/showcase formats, 9 for varsity), whether you're running a pitch clock. Match it to your level once — it's remembered for next time.
④
Run the game live
Inning, half, count, outs, and baserunners all update from the controller as the game happens — same way you'd run a Ross or Vizrt rig, minus the Ross or Vizrt rig.
⑤
Add the output to vMix
Drop the output URL into vMix (or OBS, or any switcher with a browser source) as a transparent overlay. Graphics are on the air.
⑥
Save it
Click Save Setup. Next matchup against the same team, Load Setup brings the whole thing back in two clicks.
