There should be a limit on how many pitches a high school kid can pitch. My son was offered a scholarship last year from a large D-1 school. Several games last year he pitched 135,140,147 pitches in games. Summer ball started his mph dropped 8 mph. Head college coach was at game and asked if he was hurt. All our high school coach was worried about was the win. Guess what his scholarship offer was dropped and now after 8 weeks of rehab due to a slight tear in his labrum he is now going to a Jr. College this fall to play. How many college or pro players do you see with this high of a pitch count. There needs to be a pitch count rule in place to help protect these kids arms so they can make it to college without any injuries.
