re: Over analyzing "The Sandlot"

I have 2 main questions about that movie that I have pondered on my entire life and I still cannot come to a satisfying, logical conclusion:
1. Why didn't Yeah-Yeah just throw the godforsaken ball over the fence back into the sandlot as soon as he grabbed it? And if the guys knew he was a babbling spaz, why even send him over in the first place? I mean, Timmy was a pretty logical cat. Why didn't they send him over?
2. As a future major leaguer, what in the hell was Benny looking at when he opened his gate and sprinted backwards all the way to the house after the catapult launched the baseball? Seriously, the beast caught the ball on its way down at the fence. He definitely didn't make it to the bigs as an outfielder.

I ask this question every time I watch this.... He drops it when he gets scared. Why the hell didn't he hold on to it???

Hard to judge a ball right when it come offs the bat/catapult. Ge was clearly just calling them off so he could make a diving catch.
