Youth Baseball Coaching: The Importance Hitting Stance Balance to Youth Baseball Players

Why don’t they use optical yellow for baseballs like they do for tennis balls to make them easier to see?

A long time ago they switched from white tennis balls to optical yellow. It seems that it would be safer to do this with baseballs, especially with Little League. For a sport which involves trying to catch a relatively small, hard projectile that’s travellng at a high speed, (or sometimes, if you’re a batter, trying to avoid getting hit by one, etc.) it seems like baseball has long resisted efforts to afford more protection for its players. I think this is especially notable at the youth level, where a lot of kids haven’t yet developed the reflexes and skills of adult players. My son plays Lilttle League and it always amazes me how little attention is paid towards safety. There is a lot of equipment available that is not made available to these kids. A lot of other sports which involve hard high speed projectiles like lacrosse, hockey, etc. also mandate the wearing of more protective equipment thatn baseball does. Is it tradition? Machismo? Or just stupidity?

The former owner of the A’s, Charlie Finley try it back in the 70′s. The league didn’t buy it.
