I wish Legion ball was still the preferred high school summer league.

Competitor's want the ball. A high pitch count once in a while won't hurt you. He's got all fall and winter to rest his arm.

However, the game a couple of years ago with 200+ pitches was entirely too much.

I don't blame the kid at all. He was jacked up and throwing a great game. But that's why adults are the coaches... they are supposed to have the sense to step in.

Yes he has a while to rest his arm, but I still feel he threw entirely too many pitches.

don't think either of them got to 200 but we got the Emerson Gibbs rule out of it. i think it's 10 innings in a game or 14 innings in a week

they also should mandate a day's rest for every inning you throw after 1.

There's a 0.004% chance this dude ever pitches in the MLB. 130 pitches in a World Series elimination game ain't going to kill him.

G & A had them best at State Tournament and a bad coaching decision cost them the game.

I laugh at this every time I hear about a local 10 year olds team going to Panama City Beach to play in "The World Series".

Why?
