Abstract: Examined the form of 3,684 throws made by 100 collegiate baseball players in relation to position, distance, and active and inactive situations. Videotapes of all throws for 94 half innings showed that interrater reliability of task, environment, and performance measures were all acceptable to excellent, indicating that qualitative aspects of throwing can be reliably measured in an actual sport context.
