Its like you forget that the kid is only 12 (maybe just turned 13?)


no I didnt..and 12-13 year old kids should not be playing 46/60 at that age....some of them will be playing 60/90 in just a few months

Agreed. Them playing 46/60 at this age was solely to look better on TV. They should 50/70 for 11/12 and play open bases.

A kid throwing 75 from 46 is the equivalent to a 98.6 mph fastball as far as reaction time from 46 feet.


ETA: I'm coaching a team for fall ball in a Little League controlled league for ages 11-13. We're playing 50/70 and open. So why don't they in the WS for the same age groups?
