Baseball pitching practice for first time in years

This evening, for the first time in about 2.5 years, I practiced pitching the baseball. There were no uncounted warmups, for every pitch it was recorded, was the pitch a ball/strike.

In the following stats B means a ball was thrown, S means a strike was thrown, they are listed in order thrown. No uncounted warmup pitches are left out of the stats.

First segment, 540-555 PM: BBSBSSSBBBBBBBBB; Strikes/Pitches=4/16 (25%).

Second segment, 730-745 PM: BBBBBSBBBBBSSSSSSBBSSBBSBSBSBB; Strikes/Pitches=12/30 (40%).

My stationary foot was approx 18 yards from the strike zone representing the target. I was not on a pitching mound, I was not using anything like a rubber for the foot to push off of during the pitch. I pitched sidearm.

The strike zone target I used was a black cardboard paper 24.2" wide & 20.9" high; the bottom edge was 11" above the ground. This strike zone was designed to reflect the strike zone actually called by major league empires, as opposed to what would be the strike zone if umpires perfectly adhered to what is written in the rulebook.

The stats for the baseball pitching practice sessions this year are posted online at 'Baseball Stats 2012'.
