Ok.. It's an all-star game, there are 2 on. Look at the size of that batter!.. He's as big as the Ump!
I hate intentional walks in Little League. Just count 4 pitches against the pitcher and put the kid on.
So much drama. The pageantry of throwing the ball outside. The offensive coach complaining that the catcher isn't starting behind the plate. The kid swinging to up the pitch count. How is any of that good for the game?
What lessons are we teaching the kids? No good ones that's for sure...

Quick sites that I read.
Sometimes it's a good idea to post some of baseball links that I follow.
Gamer Baseball Todd Coburn posts almost daily with quick words of wisdom. He also runs a Best of the West catcher's camp and works with America's Baseball camps in Nevada, Arizona and California. Not to mention the best catcher and coaching handbook in print. Foreword by Ron Polk!
