← Back to context Comment by stavros 13 hours ago Ahh thanks, I didn't consider that pitch is a synonym for throw. 2 comments stavros Reply globular-toast 10 hours ago Yeah. I'm British and didn't get it either. Never heard anyone say "pitch" to mean "throw". I've heard it used in baseball but thought it was a technical term like "bowling" in cricket rather than a general word for throw. stavros 10 hours ago Yeah, exactly the same for me. Or I've heard it as "pitch a tent", where I assume it's used as "set the tent up", not "throw the tent".
