Well, I too, did a couple of 10U's for the first time in years.

Was not long before the coaches asked the UIC to move me else where.

I called several illegal pitches, had the same strike zone as any age, wore
left arm out on obs.

Yes, Dakota, the kids are smaller.

Ha! Yes, me, too. The "camp on the base waiting on someone to throw me the ball" fielding technique is almost universal. I also discovered when doing the bases that when the outfielders play so close in, and with the random chaos of 10U fielding decisions, the "inside-out" theory of base mechanics doesn't work at all!
