ability to quantify hit locations into numbers/statistics

I can look at the spray chart for a player, what would be nice is the ability to quantify this data. How I would do this is the following:

1. I would make a hit to first base at 0 degrees.
2. I would make a hit to third base at 90 degrees.
3. Foul balls would take up the rest of the circle in degrees.
4. I would make an ability to set the fence distance. (that way a 420 foot fence in baseball would work along with a 180 foot fence in Softball)
5. I would make a bucket of circles every 10 feet (maybe option to adjust the length). These circles would not be visible on the screen, but Iscore would use them to make a histogram of the balls hit
6. I would allow the user to set the degrees he wants for the histogram buckets (1 degrees to 10 degrees)
7. Then instead of a spray chart, I could make a histogram or Polar chart of where the balls were hit. At worst, I could export that data into Excel and make my own histogram/Polar Chart.

You are already keeping this data. It is in the spray charts that can be brought up. What I can't determine is how many line drives were hit at 52 degrees and 120 feet, etc... for each player.

Just getting the raw data would be sufficient. I can calculate the graph in Excel.
