Hurt Arm

Having coach youth baseball for 12 years and having a son who is an outstanding pitcher. I am extremely concerned with arm injuries. I will tell you that there will be other chances for your boy to play if you take care of him now. But if you let the moment cloud your judgement, there might not be other chances. No one is going look after and care for your boy like you and he is depending on you to protect him.

NO GAME, NO TOURNAMENT is worth taking a chance in hurting your son. Listen to the Dr. and watch him play in the fall or next spring.

I know what I am talking about, when my son was chosen the first time for all star tournament team, he strained his arm in a playground incident. I sat him for a month, yes it killed me and the team. But today he is a 1st team all state pitcher in high school. So don't let your desire and others pressure hurt your boy.
