"Back in the day " when I was playing LL,there was a pitcher on a opposing team that was something like the kid in this thread.

Not only did he have a wicked fast ball,he was the home run king of the League.The kid was amazing.

I played left field.I got a lot of exercise jumping the out field fence to catch down the balls he knocked out of the field.
I remember very clearly the 1 hit,a single to right field,I got off him.

I was very proud of that one hit for a long time.I think I still am.

Point being,everyone faces kids or adults of superior talent than everyone else.
The sooner you learn to accept it and deal with it ,the better you are.

That kid forced me to be a better hitter and fielder because of his superior talent than I would otherwise had been.
