Almonte, Little League feel impact of scandal 10 years later - USATODAY.com



That would be Danny Almonte, from the Dominican Republic. He pitched for the New York Little League team until he got exposed for being 14 instead of 12 like they claimed he was. The kid was real good though, and would've probably performed well even at a real 12 years of age.

Watching some of the games currently being played, you see some 12-year olds that are like 6-foot, 200 pounds. Makes you wonder if size is sometimes a bigger advantage than age.
