Little League Baseball

Here in this part of the world, youth baseball is gearing up. We actually don’t play Little League sanctioned baseball here, but a more real and open baseball model, more closely resembling the rules of the older guys. And my youngest of 5 kids, just about to turn 7, is starting his first season of Coach Pitch.

A side note from Mrs. Carr — the 7 year olds are so cute in their little uniforms.

I’m not coaching the younger guy, as many of you know, I coach my 2 older boys, an assistant coach on the High School varsity team.

Although, my favorite season of coaching, favorite age group, is the 7 and 8 year old Coach Pitch. If you’ve never seen this age of baseball, it is mostly offense, high energy, excitement, lot’s of runs scored. In fact, all of my years of coaching, and there are many, the batting lineup for this age group is most important. If you get it right, with a focus on maximum productivity for every inning, and then add some basic fundamental defense, you’ll win almost every game.

My first go around with this age group, our team was just average, and maybe won half of it’s games. Then I got smart, used stats as my guide, and those stats helped maximize our productivity.

You see, most youth sports are coached with an eye towards favorites, most popular, and the coolest kids. The fact is favorites, popularity, and coolness aren’t synonyms for best, productivity, and results.

You know where I’m heading with this, right?
