I sense a great deal of dissatisfaction with the structure of youth baseball today.

I was actually contacted by Dad desirous of knowing if I had any

tips for how he should handle his 2 ½ year old son who it

seems is manifesting extraordinary gifts for the game. Here is what I advised:

1. Roll him a ball in the front yard. Toss him a Pickleball for

him to hit with one of those big oversized, yellow plastic bats.

2 .Take him out to the local youth league ballpark. Buy him

a rainbow snowcone and find a coach pitch game. Let him

run loose, get filthy, and develop a love for the ballpark
