It's important to teach young ballplayers to remain in the batter's box in such situations, but one Dallas area instructor took that lesson a step -- or one giant leap -- too far.
Ron Santos, a select baseball league coach in his mid-20s, was sentenced to 15 days of jail, a $500 fine and 18 months of probation for assault with bodily injury after firing fastballs at a 15-year-old youth baseball player in a sadistic session that he reportedly argued would "teach players how to take a pitch," according to CBS 11 News (h/t Big Lead).
A Waxahachie, Texas native, Santos allegedly hurled roughly 15 pitches between 60-80 miles per hour at the teenager, inflicting bruises on the kid's arms, legs and back."The coach was standing approximately 50 feet off from the batter and was throwing hardcore baseballs — intentionally throwing them at the batters — at the kids," Ellis County Sheriff's Office Lt. James Saulter told WFAA-TV.
