Prospect Wire is a well-established amateur baseball event company. We have been successfully providing teams, players, and families across the country with the opportunity for advancement and exposure. We operate under the DS Sports Ventures umbrella and currently operate out of Florida, Arizona, and California. The Scorekeeper position is the most important role we have when it comes to making sure the games run smoothly and it is the most baseball-oriented position we offer.
Qualifications:
- A strong background in baseball - can be as a player or a fan. Will need to understand positions, lineups, rules, and other intricacies.
- A functioning smartphone and app store
- Extroverted enough to be able to speak with coaches, players, parents, umpires, and staff managers
- Detail oriented, organized, and the ability to run your field without constant supervision
Responsibilities:
- Score the game on your smartphone using the Scorebook365 app (we will provide a log-in)
- Collect lineups from both coaches prior to the game and input them into the app
- Set-up a pocket radar and corresponding display unit and then input the readings during the game (all radar equipment will be provided)
- Make sure the umpires know your name and feel comfortable asking you for help. This will mainly be in the form of making sure the field is supplied with baseballs (provided by PW) and answering any questions or disputes that arise
- Pay close enough attention to the radar readings that if a parent were to ask you how fast their kid is throwing you could give them an answer
- Analyze the box score post-game and pick a player of the game based on the stats - take a picture of the player you chose and upload it into the event Telegram channel
