DESCRIBING A PITCH

Two BROADCASTERS are describing a baseball game.

BRAODCASTER 1

Henders checks the runners, now goes into his windup...

BROADCASTER 2

And here's the pitch!

BROADCASTER 1

Strike! That looked like a low slider just catching the bottom inside corner!

BROADCASTER 2

The extra sharp drop at the end tells me he probably had separated his pinky from his other fingers more than usual while gripping the ball.

BROADCASTER 1

Definitely. Also, the initial high lob tells us that he chose a fairly overhanded arm angle to start with -- very dominating beginning.

BROADCASTER 2

I think I detected a pronounced left-to-right movement as the ball crossed the plater -- means he got his legs into it.

BROADCASTER 1

The ball started rising again as it struck the catcher's mitt, a sure sign that he flailed his fingertips upward on the release.

BROADCASTER 2

I'm guessing a circle-one grip here.

BROADCASTER 1

Yep, with tucked-in elbows to start.

BROADCASTER 2

Spun the ball to the right as he got halfway threw his windup.

BROADCASTER 1

An emphasized whip of the shoulders.

BROADCASTER 2

He let his knees shake.

BROADCASTER 1

Let his upper body come tumbling down forward over the trunk of his legs.

BROADCASTER 2

His mighty, mighty legs.

BROADCASTER 1

Like two oaks. After the follow-through, he let his arms dangle like a fallen soldier.

BROADCASTER 2

Or discharged genitalia.

BROADCASTER 1

That's exactly right, discharged genitalia. The pitcher was a mighty warrior.

BROADCASTER 2

In the interest of full disclosure I'd like to report that I have ejaculated.

BROADCASTER 1

I am so aroused that I have begun composing a letter to my wife that I am leaving her for this pitch.

BROADCASTER 2

I have never loved so deeply as I do now.

BROADCASTER 1

The rest of the game has passed by and ended.

BROADCASTER 2

We must pack up our things and go.

BROADCASTER 1

The stadium is empty.

BROADCASTER 2

Good bye.

BROADCASTER 1

Good bye.

BROADCASTER 2

Winner: Royals.
