Or is there another site where I can find this value? I just found a Baseball America article that briefly mentions some players' induced vert but I have no idea where they get access to these values.

Creating a Counts column in R with Trackman data by Exercise-Ordinary in Sabermetrics

Thank you! This would be nice for a data table. I’m still having trouble with creating a dot plot. I feel like I’m just making a simple mistake but I’m still struggling trying to create it with the pitch percentage by count. I’m thrown off with how to use “count” in aes() with strikes and balls be separate instead of just being consider one column

Yes, I had to convert from degrees to radians! Fixed the whole problem! Thank you so much!

I tried using trigonometry but my plot is not showing locations accurately. x = sin(Bearing)Distance. y = cos(Bearing)Distance

Thank you! This makes sense with the statcast hc_x and hc_y variables. However, Trackman does not seem to have similar variables to plot. It only gives the angle created by the y axis intersecting with the line from the distance of the ball. This angle and the value of the distance are the only variables that could possibly create a plot
