Pitch Counters

You click the counter after every pitch, and the display keeps a running total. When a new pitcher comes in or a session ends, a reset knob brings the count back to zero. The Rawlings Pitch Counter counts from 0 to 9,999 pitches, has a durable chrome-plated metal case and an integrated finger loop so it stays in your hand during the game. Shop all pitch counters.

A single counter, like the Rawlings Pitch Counter, is perfect for tracking your own pitcher in games and bullpens. A dual counter, like the Easton Home & Road Pitch Counter or the Rawlings Dual Pitch Counter, tracks the home and visiting pitchers at the same time, which is ideal for scorekeepers and coaches who want to confirm counts with the other team. Each Easton counter records from 0 to 9,999 pitches.

Limits depend on your association and the player's age. Most youth programs set a maximum number of pitches per game and a required number of rest days based on how many pitches were thrown, to protect young arms. Ask your association for its current rules, and keep an accurate count with a pitch counter recorded in your scorebook.

Usually an assistant coach, the scorekeeper or a designated parent, so the head coach can focus on the game. It's good practice to compare counts with the other team's scorekeeper between innings, and to note the final count for each pitcher in the scorebook for rest-day rules. A dual counter makes it easy to track both teams. See all Coach's Corner essentials.

Yes. A pitch counter works the same way in fastpitch. Even where leagues don't set pitch limits, many coaches track how many pitches their pitchers throw in games and practices to manage workload across tournament weekends. Shop all pitch counters and see our fastpitch gloves and gear.

Apps can track pitches and stats, but a handheld pitch counter is simpler during a game: one click per pitch, no screen to unlock, and nothing to worry about if your phone dies or there's no signal at the field. Many coaches use a counter in the dugout and record totals afterwards. Find durable counters from Rawlings and Easton in our pitch counters collection.
