While they give runners better grip when they are running on a Baseball field, metal cleats in youth baseball have almost totally stopped being used. They are dangerous to both those playing field positions, as spikes can hit as runners slide and run bases, and to the runners because spikes can catch in the ground and cause leg/knee injuries.
