But it's rare, as evidenced by how few youngsters attend HS baseball games.
I mean rare in general. Not that rare among people who post on this forum, who are a self-selected sample of exceptionally diligent baseball parents.
Yeah, I've always been surprised at how few kids, particularly those who claim to love the game, attend next level games or really any games for that matter. I've heard all the rationale but if you really enjoy playing the game as a youth and want to be competitive, I can't imagine not wanting to watch higher levels once in a while.
