[quote=Anonymous]Here's why I would avoid baseball, and I say this as someone who joined a softball team in middle school with no natural skill but the usual amount of American experience: It is really, really lonely in right field and you learn very little out there. If the coach is good, all players will learn and progress and any natural talent this kid has will have a chance to develop. If the coach is not so good, the kid will stand around a whole lot... strike out every 20 minutes or so in batting practice, and spend the rest of the time watching the daisies grow. If your son wants to do baseball, he needs to get to the batting cages ASAP. Pretty much any man over 40 can teach him enough. A little prep goes a long way and the kids who like it are practicing their swing in the off season.[/quote]
