All the players that can throw above 65 at the LLWS are just the ones that hit puberty first lol

70 MPH is definately not an average little league pitcher. Average would closer to 60-65. Most kids pitch between mid 50s to 70ish. Average elite in little league is maybe 70 at Williamsport with a rare 75-80 monster emerging.

The thing is that in the MLB the ball goes so fast it is a blur but here it is way easier to reconize a pitch with late movement.

little league is for fun only, the real challenge starts from highschool which the field is more than 300ft

agreed. i was throwing 80 at that age and in cooperstown a kid check swung and hit a home run.

Ok although the little league bat has a smaller sweet spot a wood is about drop three and longer so it’s way harder to swing and it’s super hard to hit homers with a wood bat. Plus the field is 300+ feet and the bases are 90 ft apart also the pitcher have curveballs,sliders,change ups, and knuckleballs it is super hard to hit off a mlb pitcher

In 13u you pitch from 54 ft and the bases are 80 ft and the fences are 300+

Metal Bats, 200ft fence < 400ft fence, wood bats, and 95mph fastball

I play for the Red Sox I am 1 and 3/4 I am starting pitcher I have never let a batter even touch the ball I throw 220 mph I broke 19 catchers hands. When I am up to bat I am at home plate in Boston I hit the ball to China, I am 11'4" and am 1220 lbs. Is that good or ok?

Luke C. Bro that’s shit. You’re utter garbage. Are you throwing a beach ball? That slow?

Totally agree. im 13 too and I wasn't the best on the little field but when we got to the big field I was the only good one cause everyone else had upper cuts and they always fly out.

They are actually called BBCOR bats. Most of them use bats such as the Easton XL1, XL3, S3, etc.

When a 10 year old says. "I was on the LLWS winning team!" And I'm like get the bucket freshman so ballplayers can play

My travel team (15u) has a mound of 60 feet and a fence of 380 feet at most fields

They do throw 70 but the mound is a lot closer then High school or another level past it.

little ends at 12 years old. once your 13 you move up to bigger fields, big barrels, leading off, the stretch, pick off moves.

lol, I'm 14 and I throw in the 70's and that's good for my age group. its funny to see the 12 year olds say how fast they pitch

That pitcher needs more torq rotation and better longer stride and needs to get his arm back so he can throw faster

I hate it when people compare the "reacion time" from the different mounds. even though they take almost the same amount of time to cross the plate it's still harder to react to it because it's waaay harder to see.

Not only did he coach him, but he actually paddled the raft that Aroldis defected from Cuba on, thereby making himself the reason Aroldis is in the major leagues.

I have seen a little League pitcher pitch 75+ mph before, and he has not made a LLWS team. The players in Little League are really good.

yeah exactly Bodie F

they are wut 13 and still pitch on a mound 52 feet away. so add the 14 feet and there fastball will be like 50-60 mph.

They talk about little leaguers hitting so many home runs, but it's only a 200' fence. When I was about 12 years old (5 years ago), our average fences were 300' or more. Many of our hits to the outfield would have been home runs on their field. And they can not lead off the base, which is strange for being 12/13 years old.

If you drink half a 5 hour energy would you have full energy for 2 1/2 hours or half energy for 5?

The thing is the little league umps don't call anything over the belt

i hit two home runs in a game in back to back games but never hit one again

This is a dumb comparison. I'm in 50/70 and the fences range from 225-320 ft. Most 12 year olds throw around 55-66 mph, unless your really lanky or big you can throw faster. 13 year olds range from around 60-73. And once again if your bigger you'll throw faster. Bats are not limited in "LittleLeague" you can pretty use any bat. In "50/70 , and 60/80" you can only use BBCOR .50 bats. Which have less pop, and are heavier. The MLB is not even comparable to LL. If Giancarlo got up to the plate with a BBCOR bat he would hit it 550 ft+.

It's actually 11-13 year olds. Usually 11-12 year olds, but if you turn 13 after the cut off date, then your still allowed to play in the LLWS.

I’m 13 mounds are 60”6 bases are 90ft apart and feilds can exceed 400ft and I play with wooden bats

Not fair I'm the same age and I throw maybe top out at 65 mph but we play from 60/90 fields

Did you know that wood bats have the same pop and power as metal bats just the sweet spot on a wood bat is just a few inches.

Im 10 and this kid in my league was throwing 73mph no joke

Will manage to score more runs problably because the field is 200 feet lon

Yea...some dedicated coach he must've been, travelling to and from Cuba (by raft, i assume), not to mention Virginia, Nevada, and wherever Adam Jones grew up...

if there 13 or 14 that's short my pitching mound is like some where in the 50 ft area not 46

Yeah it looks crazy on stats, but also the LLWS players have a problem, their swing is more horizontally, which in any other league wouldn't give them an easy HR, that normally accounts for a single (when you are lucky). In Japan most of those players that Play on the LLWS never get to play at Koshien (where the best High school teams play a tournament in a professional stadium and is aired on national tv). In my case I was on a little league but only for practice, and we didn't play many official games, by the time I was on middle school, players that were on the LLWS were normally bench or only were put on the game to field the last inning when the regulars were tired. Aluminum bats are very different to wooden bats, and since im used to wooden bats when I play with aluminum bats I perform worse. I always use a more diagonal swing to be able to pull the ball up and get the ball over the infield. A stronger swing is needed to get a HR, but the most important part is the contact, power without contact doesn't mean anything.

No im not. The official change from little league to juniors, seniors, delco, ect is 13. These kids are over 5'3, and are playing on fields that are way to small for them, making them seen amazing. Hence, they are also using aluminum bats.

The bats they used are basically corked

I'm going to make a mask like Tony Stark and wear it while pitching so I can watch this

SO TRUE ABOUT THE LAST PART

Bruh at 13 we played MLB standards, 60ft pitching! Honestly the sad part was I was the shortest on my team and was only one of two people who could throw it to first from third (and I'm not very good)

Also, for the people saying "I've never seen anyone hit 70" must not play All-Star or higher levels because mid 60s becomes average (at least in Florida). I'm 28 now and play for an adult league and I love the change over to BBCOR. You have to hit it on the screws to earn the hits, and they react similar to wood. If LL introduces a change to BBCOR type standards with like a -7 or -10, the good players would stand out. I'm sorry but watching the LLWS is dumb. 1/2 the HRs are half-ass contact.

same here bro im 14 years old and couldnt agree with you more

It's funny how right you are. Back in 7th grade, I was the starting varsity catcher. These kids are not even good. If I played on a small diamond like everyone else my age did, my throw out percentage would have been at least 98%. No doubt.

My coach tells me that I am pretty good. I can throw 127 mile per hour fastball and my changeup is 94 mile per hour. Also I weigh 260 pounds and stand 7'1. I just want to know if this good. By the way I am only 3 years old

16-500...that is a huge range.

im 1 year old and 10 ft tall and throw a 560 mph curve should i improve??

Just listeennnnnn to the bats thooo

Yea Cole Hamels!!!!! He's the best pitcher ever!

I play on 60 foot mounds 90 foot bases and I’m only 11 yet my fastball still hits 75

My arm is 34" long. I was MVP pitcher in my Little League last year believe me or not.

Wow, thats really cool, what were those players like as little leaguers?

im 12 and we have 90ft bases same as MLB and we have 66'6 ft same as MLB we play middle school baseball and 325 ft fences

Maybe very true! True talent though can't be measured in feet. You have it or you don't and takes a lot of work to develop those skills.

If most kids in little are 13 and 14 with 46ft mounds, then why am I playing 12AAA on 50ft mounds

all these players grew up in different times and all lived in different areas. I highly doubt a 32 year old man has coached 500 kids in different states and countries.

Actually no. First, i'm in American Legion which we are only aloud to use wood bats. These kids are not even using BBCOR, so these Easton powerized bats with composite shit can put 100 more feet on a ball that you barley hit. Ive thrown 6 complete games with 10 or more strikeouts. This past summer season not including middle school ball ive had 35 strikeouts. Watch these kids swing, its an uppercut with contact and the bat does the rest. LLWS is a homerun derby for kids the size of 16 year olds.

0:28 lets go Ryan Braun Brewers fan

When I was 12 I was playing up in 14u in travel ball. I pitched off the 60ft 6in mound and did pretty well. These kids are "famous" when they are 13 and pitching off 46 ft mounds and 60ft base paths. For fun, I looked it up and the fields are the same as 8u travel ball. I hope people know that the LLWS is OVERRATED but at least these kids are trying and not sitting on their butts playing Fortnite all day.
