Figure 2.

Distance thrown and position of player making the throw for the data described by Barrett and Burton (Research Quarterly for Exercise & Sport. 73(1), 19-27, 2002). Note that the vast majority of throws were made through the distance 46 to 60 feet, and that these throws were made principally by pitchers and catchers. Note also that almost all of the longest throws (180 feet and above) were made by outfielders.)
