WTF

Ever want to watch a half inning that features 30+ wild pitches/passed balls, 10 walks, and 14 runs scored? Did you want to watch the same thing happen in the next half inning? 9u travel ball might be for you.

Just misery. On the bright side my kid played very well so at least had that going today. He isn't a pitcher, but he literally could not be any worse than those I watched today.

Also...fuck Perfect Game. Just the biggest money grab possible. Yes it's travel ball. Yes you pay money to play in the tournaments. But charging fucking $12 admission for adults and kids to watch 8 year olds play baseball? I could go to a literal AAA baseball game for cheaper.

Back to the board
