The Problem
Why Pitch Recognition Matters
Pitch recognition is the upstream skill that drives timing, swing decisions, and quality contact — yet it has historically been the hardest part of hitting to measure objectively.
The Standardized Recognition Test (SRT) changes that.
- Critical but historically difficult to quantify component of offensive performance
- Independent of competition level, pitcher quality, and game context
- Developed by GameSense and Dr. Peter Fadde, the leading researcher in pitch recognition science
- Validated by thousands of college, MiLB, and MLB hitters
- Predictive of underlying decision making skill, not just outcomes
Pitch recognition sits at the foundation of every hitting metric. GameSense's SRT finally makes it measurable.
Validation
Scientific Validation
- Uses Temporal Occlusion — the standard method for measuring perceptual expertise
- Developed by Dr. Peter Fadde, pioneer of pitch recognition research
- Used in studies with professional hitters, college and amateur athletes
- Correlated with offensive performance indicators
- Supported by peer reviewed publications and conference presentations
The SRT is built on decades of research and real world validation.
