I was an assistant coach to a youth league manager who said he would rather see kids strike out swinging than walk on four straight pitches. He also never mentioned walks after the game but did talk about kids who hit the ball hard even if they made outs.

A real good skill to acquire that isn't emphasized enough, is the ability to intentionally foul off good pitches with two strikes. If nothing else, it makes the pitcher work harder,

True...even Little League has pitch counts!!!!
