pitcher's
Belonging to hurler
Pitcher's is the possessive form of pitcher—either the container with a handle and spout, or the baseball player who throws to the batter.
In baseball contexts, it usually modifies position or equipment: the pitcher's mound, the pitcher's ERA.
For the vessel: the pitcher's handle broke off.
