Chico Outlaws 18 year old female Japanese pitcher, Eri "Knuckleball Princess" Yoshida, was honored as she donated her bat, ball and jersey from her debut performance to the Hall of Fame. It was a historical moment in sports for this young woman to be playing baseball professionally. I was at her first debut, and also came to her third starting pitching game to cover the game. Even though the night holds much of a "media-fest" atmosphere, at the end of the night, I still need a pitcher shot.

So how do I make a pitcher look different through 5 innings? I use my tools and resources. I change lenses, location, and the look. I rely on my tools through the lenses to get a wide perspective to a close perspective. I rely on where I am located in the stadium to get different viewpoints of her pitching. And lastly, I rely on knowing how my camera operates (like shutter speed) to change the look of an image.
