Re: Would you have walked the boy?

They did and the kid struck out!!! Walk him and you got two runners on. Championship game, it's a tough call. My sons 9 and he's got a kid on his team that is a "little off" and hasn't played a day of ball. No team takes it easy on him and he strikes out everytime. But that's the game. No intentional walks to him. Parents know the rules and want they're son to have normalcy and be treated the same as any other boy. That's the battles he'll have to face. I would question his own coach. If they're raisin such a stick about ethics and complaining the other team should have done this or that. Why didn't he know the boy was coming up to bat in an inning or two and maybe put a reserve kid in to save the kid from having to make a game saving hit. Parents would've faulted him then for making such a decision just as now people fault the other teams coach for making his decision.
