It is not uncommon for an early maturer to dominate baseball. Our city, back in the day, had a set of twins that were shaving at 12 years old. Yeah, the dominated baseball and beat me and my friend out at the city wide pitch, run, and throw competition. But, they didn't grow much after that and we all passed them up by 16.
Bottom line, sometimes its just the stroke of luck that leagues get 2-3 of these type of 12 year olds on their team and can go play in national championship tournaments etc.
