Local middle school baseball is very hard to watch, or so I've been told by my son (work schedule wasn't conducive to watching). The difference in abilities varies way too much at these ages. Generally most teams have 2 or 3 decent pitchers that can keep the games competitive for about 4 innings. After that it's time to go home or stop keeping track of the score
My son played MS baseball ultimately for the camaraderie. It also gave him free practice reps everyday after school as middle school coach held a decent practice every afternoon. As for HS - the best still make varsity.

I can share that the MS games by us were LONG. Sometimes near 3 hours. 8th graders dominate. First time on 60/90 for most of the 7th graders. Big adjustment for a lot of them.
