I have watched 9 and 10 year olds play baseball for about a week now. I’ve watched grown men give hitters signals that the best WW II code breakers couldn’t decipher and 28 different catchers go out to the mound for a conference with another 9 or 10 year old…all to come back to home plate, where the pitcher would then throw it a foot outside or bounce it short of the plate.
I’ve seen parents scream at the PA guy (I’m sitting next to him in the booth) for mispronouncing their kids name.
I’ve heard parents boo a 10 year old because the umpire was terrible.
And tomorrow it all comes to an end, unless it rains again.
