You're nuts, dude. I don't care how good a group of 11 and 12 year old kids are at baseball. They'd be facing a group of adults -- and we could easily put together a team of 9 who have all played at a competitive level before. It would be a massacre.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
How many people on SOI played beyond 12 years of age? I'm just curious how many actually played even HS ball.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'll start a poll.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I probably just have a perception that's off base. It's happened before.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Some of those kids throw like 78. I've never thrown 78 in my life. The 1B for the Warner Robins team is bigger than me...by about 60 pounds. They're freaks.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yeah but they are throwing from 45 feet. We could throw at least that fucking hard from that distance.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
From 45 feet, there's no doubt I could throw in the 70's without a problem.
In all actuality, the hardest position for us to field would be catcher, I'm not sure I could do it. Pitching-wise, we'd be more than fine.
