What does PITCH mean in Scrabble?

verb

To throw or toss something with a particular aim, speed or force.

A pitcher will pitch a ball toward the batter in games such as baseball and cricket, aiming for accuracy rather than raw distance. Away from sport, people also pitch tents by setting up their poles and canvas, and speakers pitch ideas by presenting them persuasively to an audience. The common thread across these separate senses is a controlled delivery or placement, whether of an object, a shelter, or a proposal.

How PITCH is used

Common across everyday speech, sport commentary and business contexts, both as a verb and, in related meanings, as a noun for a sports field or a sales presentation.
