Things have surely changed since I've been to the ball field.

Athletic 12 year old the size of a 15 year old, power is not surprising. We had a few like that growing up and during my coaching days. The vast majority will have a slowed growth period around 14-15 and his friends he towered over will catch up and probably pass him. Of course, you can’t hold that against him, but you can hold his attitude against his parents.

At some point the pendulum will swing back to just taking care of business without the showboating. Acting like you've been there will be cool again.

Until then, sports are kind of gay right now...

What happened to not slinging the bat, and even moreso here, banging it on the ground?

And the coaches celebrating it?

Ol’ Sarge would have thrown my deserving arse out and disallowed the run.

Bunch of haters that don’t know what it’s like to hit a walk off to win the 12U silver triple bracket rv world classic.

Kid's prom video gon' be lit.

And when they start letting people throw the bat? Use to be if you did anything other than drop the bat it was an auto-out.

I can guarantee the specific scenario you have presented has never happened.

We have made sports into behemoth part of our society and it’s a mess (and I have a son playing college football).

It’s a mess at all levels and stakeholders. Those coaches seal the deal. The parents likely having orgasms over video.

100% agree

Problem is that many people on the Rant say it's cool..they're kids..call someone a boomer if they don't like it.

The only way to cure this is for him to get beaned in the face for the next 27 at bats.
