We had nowhere near the resources these kids have. I had to ride my bicycle to games forget having a hitting coach and clinics etc

I think about this too. Feels better to feel like a king even if it was just rec ball glory. Pretty sure I would have fared much worse in elite travel ball.

You have to see how many reps these kids are getting now. Back in the 80s/90s we got 12-16 games total in each sport and we moved on to the next sport.

It's not just the athleticism and playing/coaching time. The knowledge base about the sport is phenomenal.

1978-79 in college, I did not see people regularly throwing over 90.
Did they have great off-speed pitches for strikes? Yes. Did the have great location. Yes. But not consistently over 90.
