Lead Offs For 9 Year Olds Are Insane and I Will Die on This Hill - Academy Youth Baseball Podcast EP 112 | Driveline Baseball
<p><strong>Lead Offs For 9 Year Olds Are Insane and I Will Die on This Hill</strong></p><p><br></p><p>In this episode of "the world's most dangerous youth baseball podcast," host Deven Morgan takes listener questions and goes deep on the nuts and bolts of coaching young players — how to develop first-year kid pitch arms without overusing your two best strike-throwers, why ranking 7-year-olds is absurd, when leadoffs and holding runners should actually be introduced (not before 12), how to use Blast sensor metrics like bat speed and attack angle with youth hitters, and how to structure an 8–12 week competition on-ramp for a national team. The throughline: simple external cues, ball-flight-driven intentions, and equitable opportunity beat the professionalized, performance-first approach that's driving kids out of the game by ten. The episode closes with an emotional reflection on coaching Max Rojas for 11 years — from a seven-year-old to an 18-year-old signing with Tacoma CC — and an amazing Senior night experience. </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Timestamps:</strong></p><p>00:00 Intro & Academy Tryouts Pitch05:50 Listener Feedback: More Nuts & Bolts, Less Doom & Gloom09:00 First-Year Kid Pitch: Why Tommy & Timmy Get Overused13:00 Step Backs, Kershaws & Simple Drill Environments for Young Hitters16:00 11 of 13 Pitched — Ryan Freeman's 10U Example18:20 "It Matters to Him" — My Wife Checked Me22:00 The Math Project Analogy: Turn Two Into Four, Six Into Eight26:00 External Cues for Young Pitchers: Find Home, Big Breath, Adjust Off Middle29:50 The Absurdity of Ranking 7-Year-Olds33:00 Equal Playing Time at 7–8 Rec: Equity Over Attendance37:00 Leadoffs & Holding Runners — Not Before 1244:30 Travel Ball vs. Rec: The False Keeping-Up-With-the-Joneses Narrative47:55 On-Ramping a National Team: 8–12 Week Competition Runway50:45 Blast Sensor Metrics: Bat Speed, Attack Angle & Adjusting Intention56:35 Max Rojas: 11 Years, Senior Night & the Last Time They Play Together01:03:30 Why All of This Matters — Producing Kids Like Max01:07:00 State Playoffs, the Last Page & What Goes By Like a Whisper01:12:25 Closing: Happy Mother's Day & Powered by Driveline</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p>https://t.co/R7TLVHE2EU</p>
