Questions : The term ‘Pitcher’ is associated with :

(a) Baseball

(b) Boxing

(c) Basketball

(d) Wrestling

The correct answers to the above question in:

Answer: (a)

In baseball, the pitcher is the player who throws the baseball from the pitcher’s mound toward the catcher to begin each play, with the goal of retiring a batter, who attempts to either make contact with the pitched ball or draw a walk. In the numbering system used to record defensive plays, the pitcher is assigned the number 1.

Traditionally, the pitcher also bats. In most cases, the objective of the pitcher is to deliver the pitch to the catcher without allowing the batter to hit the ball with the bat.

A successful pitch is delivered in such a way that the batter either allows the pitch to pass through the strike zone, swings the bat at the ball and misses it or hits the ball poorly (resulting in a pop fly or ground out).

If the batter elects not to swing at the pitch, it is called a strike if any part of the ball passes through the strike zone and a ball is when no part of the ball passes through the strike zone.
