## Description

Speed Gun for Baseball is a lightweight browser extension that lets coaches, players, and fans measure pitch velocity without an expensive radar gun. It works with live data or video: click when the pitcher releases the ball and again when it reaches the plate to capture speed, time, and key metrics. The extension stores fastest, slowest, and average speeds, supports a customizable pitch length, and displays results in MPH or KM/H.
