There's a great moral to this story, but home plate hasn't always been 17 inches wide. It was widened several times over the years.
The story took place in 1996. The coaches in that room asserted that it was 17 inches across the board. That's all that matters. To quibble about the size of the plate is to totally miss the message, sigh.
No wonder our country is in so much trouble.....
Well, like I first said, there's a great moral to the story. The rest is for the history nazis out there that enjoy a deeper look.
