re: Travel ball spin off: Babe Ruth piloting pitch count rules

road, the biggest problem I see in youth ball is that even with pitch counts in a game, I don't see limits on games alot.
USSSA at least gives some guidelines for number of innings pitched over the number of days a tournament takes place.
It's still patently stupid though.
Worse than pitching 100 pitches in a game is warming up and throwing 40 at 10am, then coming back and warming up and throwing 20 at 2pm. Then going another 30 at 9am the next morning and then another 15 at 1pm that afternoon.
Plus playing catcher for half of the other innings not pitched.
It's ridiculous regardless of the rules how coaches can ride players.
Man up and develop some other kids.
