Pitchers use jai-alai cestas to hurl insanely fast fastballs and wicked curves. The rest is self explainatory..

       I could go for a tall ice-cold pitcher of jai-alai.

       Given that Jai-Alai originated from a game played by Incan priests who held †cats by their tails and swung at leather balls... I wonder how long it'll take 7/8 to start a "new" retro Jai-Alai fad.
†The cats would instinctively grab at the ball with their claws, thus enabling players to catch them.

       Er, thumb, they had Incas in Basque country?

       Uhh... I think this idea is incomplete without some consideration for the catcher...

       Incans had the early version - damned Basques stole idea, as usual.
