    High school rules

    In Ohio, in the SWBL anyhow, Jr High through Varsity play on different days, sometimes a JV will be on one field and JR high on another. All are playing full games...unless run rule applies. This might not be the case every where, but I would hate it to be Bush league...

    Bragging on another kid

    A team in our organization was playing at Smokey Baker tournament in Cincinnati last weekend. 14 U, Bottom of last inning, down by 3, 2 outs, bases loaded, 2 strikes....a no doubter grand slam to walk it off. They lost next game but what a moment for that kid.

    What is the goal to all of this?

    I look back at my brother and I playing ball. We were good ball players. He was a pitcher, I was a catcher. We made all star teams every year from 8-9 to 14-15. I don’t recall travel ball being a thing, but select teams were starting. This would have been 1990-91 in the Dayton OH area. It was...
