arunca de pe damb/movila
Explanation:
The pitcher throws the ball to the hitter 'off the mound'. Deci e o ridicatura de pamant, nu inalta, dar mai ridicata (10 inches) decat restul terenului de baseball.

Si apropo, nu e correct 'throw off of the mound', corect e 'throw off the mound', nu se adauga 'of'.

da, inteleg ca asa e in original, dar nu este corect 'throw off of the mound, chiar daca ai gasit pe net referinte. trust me, am crescut in state, cunosc bine si limbajul si sportul, si expresia 'to throw off the mound' inseamna ca pitcher (aruncatorul), 'pitches' (arunca) mingea de pe ridicatura aceea. stiu ca in romaneste nu exista sportul, deci termenul poate ca trebuie sa il inventezi, dar asta e ideea.

deci linkul acela il arata pe pitcher nefiind pe mound - deci cand vine vremea, el va urca pe 'mound' ca de acolo arunca in timpul unui meci.

Asker: In textul meu e cu "of".

Asker: Banuiesc ca verbul este "throw off".

Asker: Si pe Google sunt destule rezultate cu "of", iar imaginile imi arata o anumita pozitie a sportivului in momentul aruncarii, nicidecum o movilita sau un damb.

Asker: Uite: It wasn’t completely clear whether Harvey was scheduled to throw off of the mound for the first time on Friday or this coming Tuesday, but general manager Sandy Alderson said he didn’t consider it a full mound session. http://newsnyork.com/mets-matt-harvey-takes-big-step-by-throwing-off-the-mound-for-first-time-since-tommy-john-surgery/
