I bet you have seen the video of the little leaguer who got hit in the head with a pitch and then went to console the pitcher that hit him. Many youth sports parents and coaches can learn from this moment of sportsmanship and forgiveness, according to most.
The video has been viewed millions of times. They pointed out how important it was for this kid to go out to the mound and hug the pitcher that just hit him. It is a competition, but no one sends their children out there to hurt someone else. Kids get that.
There are other reactions to the incident. Some adults think the kids are soft for having this moment. Dave Portnoy is the president of Barstool Sports.
This isn't nice. It doesn't make sense. The kid is on the ropes and he is frightened. There is a trip to Williamsport on the way. After that, you can play pattycakes. That is your plate, as far as the pitcher is concerned.
There was a negative reaction to this video from other people. There are a lot of people who want to see kids act like jackasses.
Some people have found a way to make fun of these kids for showing they are humans. The pitcher was more upset with himself than the batter. The batter should have taken advantage of his soft nature.
This is stupid and should be illegal. Many of the guys belittling these kids supported "El Presidente 45" so it isn't shocking to see them spout their idiocy all over the internet. This was a great moment that everyone can learn from.
Human decency can be found in a competitive environment.
