I'm sure this is a common tale but the big stud kid on my LL team (late 70's) was 5'9" and hit a couple balls over 400 ft that year. I saw him a few years later and he was the same size, maybe an inch taller and never even played high school ball.

There were three kids I played LL with that played pro ball. One was a big kid in LL (5'7 - 5'8" topped out around 5'10") and the other two were undersized and developed late. The big kid ended up playing RB in the NFL, the other two...one played DB in the NFL for several years and the other topped out at AAA in the White Sox organization. So I'd say one of our two big kids made it, and two little kids made it.
