Now playing baseball is bad for our kids?


Youth sports and physical activity is good for our kids, right? 

Well now there’s a concern about that. Healthy researchers staked out the stands and secretly observed some shocking dugout behavior. Many of the players were gorging themselves on high-calorie treats, nuts, gum and sugary sports drinks for the duration of the game. Compound that with several games a week and a lot of bench time and those little sluggers could be getting bigger by the inning.


The bleacher creatures were observed too and were just as guilty. Siblings, parents and grandparents were seen snatching up unhealthy contraband in the form of hot dogs, ice cream, soda and candy at the concession stand while waiting for their favorite player’s at-bat.
