Fun fact: The correlation is 1 to 1 with respect to parents who think HS baseball doesn't matter and/or just 100% BS politics to parents of players who are not getting playing time on the HS team.
I've never met the parent of a starting HS Varsity player who thought HS baseball was 100% politics.
When my son was a freshman starter on varsity, the best advice I ever got was from a father of a starting junior: "Don't sit with the other parents of the team. Five to ten of them think their kid should be playing and they sit there and moan and complain about it through the whole game. It's a cancer for the team and I recommend staying away from it."
My son is now a junior and his advice stands true 3 years in a row.
