Little League Pitcher Banned From Playing Because He's Too Good

Story is here.

John Kruk on Baseball Tonight had it right: the adults opposed to having this kid pitch with his age group are teaching their kids to be quitters. They should be ashamed of themselves and they have now become infamous thanks to the media attention and they have traumatized a child who has done nothing wrong.

This is a joke to the point of farce. Stop coddling your kids you idiots. Teach them how to compete straight up and not runaway from difficult situations. What's next? All the students of a high school class walking out and their parents forcing it to be canceled because a particularly smart kid has set the curve too high? Give me a break!

Approved
