Hey all,

I am probably one of the VERY few that you will hear this from...DON'T CHANGE A THING!!

From my perspective, kids learn to hit, throw and catch. Nowhere do I say pitch. They don't learn to pitch until it is time for them to do so in a game sometime that week.

If you eexxppaanndd the stike zone, you are then teaching a little kid that a bad pitch can/will be called a strike. You are also teaching the little hitters that they had better swing at a bad pitch because that "ball" will probably be called a strike.

Make the pitchers learn how to pitch, and everyone will be better off later on. These are your future HS players, aren't they?
