"When Stayton was 7, he was playing shortstop in a rec league down here in Corsicana," Robby said, "and he went out and chewed out the left fielder because he didn't catch a fly ball. So I figured I'd better find out if he could play in a better league."

What a great way to build outstanding citzens.... have 7 year olds chew out their teammates!!!
