SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, PA - You won’t see Todd Frazier walking out to the mound at Lamade Stadium this weekend. He’ll be up in the booth that hangs behind home plate, broadcasting to the world.
He’s ABC’s analyst for the Little League international and United States championship games Aug. 23 starting at 12:30 ET, and then for the Aug. 24 Little League World Series championship.
Frazier, though, who coaches his 11-year-old son, Blake, in travel baseball, often finds himself checking on his pitcher.
“If your son's not up to it, I'm not gonna throw him,” Frazier told USA TODAY Sports in an interview this spring. “It's not about getting these rings and these medals and whatever it is for a two-day tournament. You know, it's about progression. It's about focusing on the good things in these kids.”
“Kids are throwing way too much. I tell my parents all the time, ‘Listen I'm going by Little League rules about pitching. You're not throwing over a certain amount.’ ”
