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.
