    Playing dodgeball with a fastpitch pitcher...

    That seems a bit unfair, but it sure was fun to watch.

    step-up bats

    Our team had a Xeno, a CF8, a LS X12, & an Easton FS3 this season. I used each of them in practice to hit fly balls to the outfielders, & noticed very little difference among the Xeno, CF8, & FS3 as far as distance.

    This is my first post on this board so I hope I can ask this question in a way that makes sense. What percentage of opportunities would you expect to be converted to outs for an 8u infielder (primarily 2B, 3B, & SS)? I know it is not realistic to expect a 7/8 yr old kid to make every play that...
