Dodgers Star Max Muncy Reveals ‘AI Programs’ Used To Spot Pitch Tipping
The Los Angeles Dodgers’ veteran infielder detailed the use of artificial intelligence to identify pitcher tendencies.
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy has revealed that some teams are using AI programs to spot pitch tipping during games. Muncy, speaking on Foul Territory, stated that AI programs can analyze video footage to identify differences in pitch tendencies, glove positioning, and hand movements. This technology could provide teams with an edge in the postseason, where small details can make a significant impact.
The National League Division Series between the Milwaukee Brewers and San Diego Padres has seen speculation about the Brewers' closer, Corey Kluber, tipping his pitches. Muncy's comments suggest that AI-assisted analysis could be a new aspect of postseason preparation, allowing teams to process vast amounts of video and identify patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed.
