So far, so good- There’s room for improvement. – BASIQs Baseball Review

Having used this app for about fifteen minutes, I’ve made a few conclusions and critiques; hope this review provides some helpful insight. This app looks to be a solid representation of baseball situations. After creating your profile, you are provided with two options: Game or Practice. After clicking a mode, you choose a position to play for the duration of the Game or Practice. Practice mode provides you with a situation, showing runners on base and outs. After clicking ‘Pitch’, the screen displays a hit to a position (accompanied by the type of hit, such as grounder, line drive, pop-up, etc.). Practice mode then gives you instructions on what your positions job is in the given play. Other helpful tips are also shown regarding the play. As for ‘Game’, it is nearly the same, however, you are quizzed on the situation. You must choose from multiple choices to test how well you know your baseball IQ. Critique: I came for a mode that would provide some insight as to what ALL the players would do. In Practice and Game, it simply tells you what your position does, and NOT the others. These situations are not tailored to your position, so as a center fielder for instance, there maybe only one or two plays in an entire practice rotation of roughly 9 plays that even involve a throw. Essentially in this center fielder scenario, you are provided with lots of situation where you are simply given the answer: “Backup the play in the infield”. It still doesn’t show you what the infields should do. Dev Recommendation: I would recommend adding info once what EVERY position does in a given play. Tailor the plays to the position picked by the app-user so you aren’t stuck with a bunch of unecessary plays that are (nearly) irrelevant to a position. This would greatly improve my usage of this app and probably help me to quiz myself more efficiently. Hopefully this helps!
