CE ÎNSEAMNĂ PITCHER ÎN ENGLEZĂ?
Ulcior
În jocul de baseball, pitcherul este jucătorul care aruncă baseball-ul de la movilionul pitcherului spre captivator pentru a începe fiecare joc, cu scopul de a se retrage un batter, care încearcă fie să intre în contact cu mingea înclinată, fie să facă o plimbare. În sistemul de numerotare folosit pentru a înregistra piesele defensive, la ulcior i se atribuie numărul 1. În mod tradițional, pitcherul se lunetește de asemenea. Începând din 1973, cu Liga Americană și împrăștiind alte ligi pe parcursul anilor 1980 și 1990, sarcinile de lovire ale pitcherului au fost în general acordate poziției de hitter desemnat, o cauză a unor controverse. Liga Națională din Baseball Major League și Liga Centrală Japoneză se numără printre ligile rămase care nu au adoptat poziția de hitter desemnată.

If I ever find a pitcher who has heat, a good curve, and a slider, I might seriously consider marrying him, or at least proposing.
During my time, there might have been one pitcher or two that were top pitchers on a team. Teams that won maybe had three, but today they have a lot of depth. They have a lot of long relievers, short relievers, and the strategy is different.
I played American Legion ball starting when I was 14. But I didn't catch until I was 17. I was 75-3 as a high school pitcher, but it was like everybody knew that I was supposed to be a catcher. When the scouts would come around, and I was pitching, they'd make me take infield practice so the scouts could watch me throw.
I don't know why you would trade a stud pitcher.
Every pitcher can beat you, it doesn't matter how good you are.
The overall thinking of the shortstop covers the overall context of the ballgame. You have to know the count they'll hit-and-run on. You're thinking of the speed, not only of the runner at first base, but the runner at the plate. You have to know how fast the pitcher is on a particular day.
Sometimes I rush my swing because I am so anxious to play well. In Cuba, the quality of the pitching is not the same as it is here. There you might find one or two pitchers at 94 or 95 mph. Here, every day I find several, and each pitcher who comes along throws his hardest stuff.
Every great batter works on the theory that the pitcher is more afraid of him than he is of the pitcher.
I had some great pitchers while in St. Louis. At first, they only 'pitched' the ball fifty feet. They had an allowance of six bases on balls, which was neutralized to some extent by four strikes. Later on, the 'throw' became a free-for-all, overhand, or any style the pitcher chose.
