Francis7 posted:First varsity scrimmage today. Rostering 19 including 3 sophomores and 2 freshmen...one of which is my kid. He's the only one of the 5 who is not a pitcher. I'm starting to wonder if it's too much pressure for a kid who is still 2 months away from 15.
Enjoy the game even if he doesn't see the field and let him perform, you might be surprised. My son goes to a small charter school and he and 6 other 8th graders were varsity starters. First game he every played having to swing a -3 bat he went 3-4 with a double! He's a Junior now and all that experience was valuable when they're playing 5A schools in tournaments.
