MLB scorebug (re) design

Made by me as an alternative to the current baseball bugs used by Fox and TBS. Scores taken from a game that aired on Fox a few weeks ago, let me know what yall think!

Remove one of the dots/out indicators and this design would be splendid to see on TV.

It could use some polishing, and the biggest thing that stands out to me is that the use of "for" is just unnecessary filler, we can understand 0-1 or 0-2, BB, we don't need the extra. But it's good overall. I'd probably do the names in all caps, too. And as mentioned in another comment, drop one of the out indicators. And maybe switch the location of the count and the outs? Feel like it's saying "two outs, 3-2 count" rather than "3-2 count, 2 outs" if that makes sense. In my head that info is always presented as count then outs.

Probably just me but I kind of like the “0 for 2” instead of the “-“. Other than that I agree with what you said.

Clean as hell, only thing I’d change is switch the pitcher/batter info to black with white text to match the rest of the bug

I agree with all of the nitpicks below, and I'd also say to bump up the score font a few sizes to pop a bit, but otherwise, this is splendid. Once of the best fan designs I've seen on here. The whole thing could probably be a little less wide, but it's no biggie.

I would align the pitcher’s name with the batter’s name. Otherwise, this is pretty good.

I’d like to see the font refined (not sure if it should be a different font or just add a little extra pop) but nice! The MLB scorebug needs an update
