Rich,
My kid is 12 and a pretty good player but not a phenom at all.
He played catcher last year on a team(with 70' bases and leadoffs) and threw some kids out at second base. He threw a lot of kids out at third. Base on Balls were not triples against us.
If it is rec ball, I guess I could see them using the softball rule of staying on the base until the pitcher lets go of the ball....but no running until the ball gets home? That seems weird. I have not seen it in person so, I am going to see it this year because Little League is what is here.
Our only other option that I could find was the teams playing a tournament every single weekend. I think that is too much for a kid this age and I simply do not have that kind of money, either.
Joe
