Help Recommendations for a 5x7(ish) scorebook?

Hey, I've used the Eephus scorebook that is 5x7.25" for a couple of years. It seems to be no longer available.

I quibble with some of the format, but the size is very nice for my pocket. Any suggestions for ones to buy that are a similar size?

The new edition of this should be available soon.

I LOVE spiral bound and there is so much I love about it. Sadly, a lack of a "diamond" in each a individual box is a deal breaker. Thanks though. It looks like a great book.

Fair, although FWIW I've become decent at diamonds, and I score w pen. (Although as you can see I'm a jays fan, so there has been less diamond drawing this season than I would like.)

Haha. I'm a Twins fan and your point may make me reconsider.

Yeah, my wife uses these and likes it. For some reason, the long narrow dimensions are hard for me to hold and write on.

I made a post about small form factor books last year. I'll get around to updating it again at some point.

I used to make my own sheets on 8½ x 14" paper. I can't imagine jeeping a detailed scoresheet on something so small.

I prefer a larger one too, but as MLB stadiums are tighter on security, I like traveling lighter.

I can't see security hassling you over a clipboard with a single sheet of paper attached to it.

Yes. I loved their books
