I also like the small "spark line" images you drew to show each pitch from a second side-view perspective. The dark shade of the ball and motion-line layer nicely over the quiet gray of the pitcher's mound and home plate to further illustrate and differentiate one pitch style from another. Very good information design, Lokesh!
