PD

Figured we were on the same page. We faced kid from Ft Bend isd that "throws" 90+ earlier in the year. We scored 7 runs on him in 2+ inn by hitting his 86-87 flat FB all over the field.

Kid from Cinco Ranch last year "threw" 88-89. Son said he never hit 85.

Bullpens are great, but pitching with a batter and the game going on is a whole other story.

My 12 year olds select coach happens to be a former All American and Major leaguer who swears by teaching these kids to PITCH. They work inside to get the outside. He preaches location, location and more location. He does not want every batter struckout. We won a tourney last weekend and we probably only had 10 K's in 3 games on Sunday. Most were ground balls and a few lazy fly balls.
