Little League Happenings
I was doing a little league game this summer, and one rather large kid (to put it nicely) would crowd the plate and stick his hand out straight in front of him and usually smack down the breaking balls. I warned the kid the first time about making an attempt to evade the pitched ball, in fact, I even called time and walked down the the base and told him, due to the level of play this is. The second time same batter comes up, he doesn't stick his hand out, he doesn't even move, and he gets drilled with a fastball (I don't know if drilled is the word, it was coming in at about 40 MPH tops) I tell him no base, because he didn't move. The coaches and stands go nuts (close game). Fun stuff.
