The Travel circuit has been maligned on this site..Just wondered what some of you have to say about this years LL World Series and the despicable coach that allowed a kid to tax his arm to the tune of 136 pitches. Why does LL still allow a kid to throw 6 innings in one game? This was probably touched on..to those that feel the need to point this out please save us the time from reading it and move on.
Even the broadcasters (terrific coverage)were blasting said coach! It really was ridiculous, you could see the kid was fatigued! Doesn't quite follow the AMA standards or the advice of any sane Orthopedic specialist. Talk about Travel Ball having a lack of oversite. Come on?

Fastball...That is good news. Seems incomprehensible that LL still in this day of enlightenment, armed with all the recommendations from orthopedic specialists the AMA and numerous case studies concerning youth arm injuries that they would green light a kid tossing 136 from the bump? I really thought Harold Reynolds was going to jump out the booth and give the coach a slap. This is one area where people like us can make difference and should. People need to articulate these concerns to LL baseball.
