Pitchers is a data-visualization explorer for baseball pitcher statistics, showing how individual performance metrics vary across a dataset. It displays a grid of small bar charts, one for each statistical category, and allows users to brush along one or more dimensions to filter the data. A table of matching pitchers updates in real time, presenting the filtered records in a plain-text format. The visualization is built with D3 v4, using `d3.scaleLinear`, `d3.axisBottom`, and `d3.brushX` to create the interactive charts and brushes, with data scraped from Retrosheet.
