The Pitcher

Zさん："You're a baseball fan, right?"
Aさん：「I am.」
Zさん："Ever notice that after a pitcher throws the ball, as part of the follow-through, his leg swings forward, and the toe of his shoe slams into the pitcher's mound?"
Aさん：「I suppose.」
Zさん："Is that why the Japanese word for pitcher is 投手?"
Aさん：「That's a bit of a stretch.」
Zさん："Seventh inning?"
Aさん：「。。。No。」

In the mail
