“Teams will be able sift through performance stats from current and past seasons, weigh potential pitcher-hitter matchups, look at “spray charts” showing where a player is likely to hit a ball, even cue up videos of plays from previous games.”

The deal is similar to what the NFL made with Microsoft with its Surface tablets.

The teams are expected to start using the iPads during regular season this year.
