Well, that's a tough question. I suppose it all depends on how you look at "work." Obviously when the pitcher releases the ball, his work is finished, but the effect that he places on the thrown ball is not finished until the ball stops. The pitcher has transferred his "work" energy to the ball. The ball then carries out the remainder of his work.
A Baseball player hitting foul after foul is done more so to stay alive (not strike out) then to work the pitcher ... You have to keep in mind that the batter him self is using up energy to hit the ball foul ... The batter would rather get a hit then repetitively hitting the ball foul ...

A knuckle ball is thrown when a pitcher hold the ball, not with his fingers fully extended, but bent such that only the "knuckle" of the fingers is touching the ball when released. When done right -- and it is not an easy pitch to throw correctly -- the ball will have very little spin. As such, the ball can go just about anywhere before it reaches the plate, depending on how the wind is blowing. When a good knuckleball pitcher is throwing well, batters will be flaying at the ball almost helplessly, as even the pitcher has no idea what it will do as it heads towards the catcher.

It's a play where in the fielder throws the ball to 1st base to get the batter-runner out. This play is always done when there are no runners on base.
If you shot the ball from inside the arch, you will get 2 points, outside the arch, 3 points, and free throws for 1 point each.
Its usually done cause the catcher ask for a ball change. He feels his pitcher didn't have a good feel with the ball.
kinda. it all depends on what position you play in lacrosse. lacrosse is faster because of the posistion of middie and attack they are the ones on the team that run notice how basketball players stop and dribble then shoot or pass lacrosse is always running cause of defence and the shots of lacrosse will beat bball anyday
Yes, usually this is done when a new pitcher comes in during the same at-bat and throws with the opposite arm.
When runners are on base, pitchers generally tend to pitch out of the stretch, meaning that they shorten the time it takes to prepare and throw a pitch. This is done to prevent base runners from stealing base. When there are no runners on base, pitchers tend to pitch out of the wind up.
