A series of photographs showing a single baseball pitcher mid-delivery, captured in sequence, breaks one throwing motion into a run of frames the eye can follow from windup to release. Sequential studies like this were a popular way to analyze athletic movement in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when photographers such as Eadweard Muybridge had shown that a camera could freeze motion too fast for the human eye to see. Pictures of this kind were used by coaches, illustrators and students of the body, and they remain useful for spotting how a pitcher's weight shifts and how the arm travels through the throw.
