Reply to "Converting to Left Handed"

I had a thought that shows how much more involved fathers are now with their kid’s sports journey ...

As a kid I played on some dominant high school and Legion teams. On my high school team I was one of two left handed hitter. We both threw left. We were natural lefties. On my Legion team I was the only left handed hitter.

On my son’s high school team he was one of five left handed hitters in the starting lineup. All five threw right handed. This didn’t happen because kids picked up a bat in the park and decided to hit left handed. They were all taught by their fathers to be R/L. My son was the only natural lefty. But I taught him to throw right.
