Reply to "Daughter getting interested in playing baseball. Advice wanted"

I have to agree with TR, though I am a firm believer any sport a boy can play so can a girl.

One of the best players in my son's Khoury League when he was younger was a girl. She could hit and pitch with the best of them. The boys loved her.
The day they announced she would no longer play the boys were devastated. She was about 12-13, starting to develop quickly(you know they do that before boys). Also at that time the boys were beginning to put some velocity on the fastballs. Her parents felt it was time to seperate her from the boys and were also concerned that she could get injured (hit with a pitch). It's a lot different for a girl to live with scars from injuries than a boys. They don't make cups for breasts, do they?

You all are so against the use of metal bats because they are dangerous, why would you want to put your daughters in harms way? JMO.
