"Team Photo" by Burrito Breath
Burrito Breath is an Ohio-based artist with a vibrant, humorous style. His cover is an homage to any baseball weirdo who ever laced up spikes and spat on a diamond.
"Mascots" by Diego Marmolejo
Diego is an illustrator and artist from Barcelona, Spain, with a style that mixes minimalism and maximalism. If you can name all of the mascots in his design, you're a proper baseball nerd!
"The Wave" by Rick Neuendorf III
Rick is an illustrator, graphic artist, Orioles fan, and avid scorekeeper from Glen Burnie, Maryland. His design captures the joy of live baseball, a bag of peanuts, and the wave.
FAQ
Who are these scorebooks best for?
These scorebooks are good for the scorekeeper who might not want to lug around a full-sized book, but who wants to record the game action while also being able to enjoy a hot dog and soak in the atmosphere.
If a scorebook that can capture more detail (like pitch sequences) is preferred, try the #22 Scorebook.
If this feels like a good format, but only a scorecard for one or two games is needed, check out the Palm Slappers.
Do you have examples or instructions on how to score games?
Sure, you can check out the Pocket-Sized Scorebook Almanac page for some examples of filled-out score sheets and other handy info.
Is this the same as the Palm Slapper, but in book form?
Yep, pretty much. The Pocket-Sized Scorebook was designed to use the same style of scoresheet as the Palm Slapper (though with one less inning, for space-saving reasons) and is the same size (8x4"). If you like the size and style of the Palm Slapper but wish they came in a book format, then this is the scorebook for you!
Will this book fit into my pocket?
As long as you aren’t working with weird tiny pockets, then yes! The format of this book is patterned after old-school reporter’s journals, designed to fit neatly into jacket pockets, pants pockets, or even dress shirt pockets if you’re feeling brave. The corners of the book are rounded to prevent unsightly dog ears and make pocket-stuffing easy.
How durable is this book?
The covers of this scorebook are 120# cover-weight paper, and the interior pages are 70# text-weight paper. It’s sturdy enough to last, with enough flexibility to be a comfortable pocket carry. The covers on these books are digitally-printed, whereas our standard Pocket-Sized Scorebooks are offset-printed.
What goes in the empty box at the bottom of the inning column?
It’s flexible space where you can track what you’d like. Inning pitch counts, a typical R/H/LOB or R/H/LOB/E total, any other combination of inning stats, snacks you ate...it’s your call.
Can I send this as a gift?
That’s a great idea! We can ship gift items to you, or put everything in order and ship directly to the gift recipient. Send us a note and let us know how we can help make the recipient feel deservedly special.
