Baseball Is Booming — Here's How Smart Coaches Are Gaining an Edge in 2025

Baseball is seeing a massive surge in popularity right now — Google reports a 24% increase in baseball-related searches compared to last year. From Little League fields to elite travel ball tournaments, the game is buzzing.

But as interest climbs, so does the competition.

More coaches are turning to data-driven scouting reports to gain a tactical edge — analyzing opponents’ lineups, pitcher tendencies, and game patterns before they ever step on the field.

If you're not scouting your opponents, you're already playing from behind.

Whether you're coaching a 9U travel team or a high school varsity squad, the ability to spot weaknesses, anticipate strategies, and exploit trends can mean the difference between winning and falling short.

At Elevate Analytics, we deliver customized reports built from your opponent’s actual GameChanger data. You’ll see:

• Full hitter & pitcher breakdowns
• Strike percentages, OBP, ERA & more
• Clear summaries designed for busy coaches
• And now — a free 10-game scouting report just for trying us out
