Answer:
The pitcher is kind of anxious and with a lot of anticipation about winning, he's not so sure about throwing the right pitch, he wants to win but deeply somehow he feels the batter is better than him.
Therefore the best answer is the last one:
<em>"The pitcher thinks that the batter is much better than he is."</em>
The word <em>dispassionately</em> is a very strong word to use for emotion. <em>It was decided </em>is a very final phrase, suggesting no change in the narrator's perspective. And <em>generally speaking</em> helps broaden the audience by not setting the tone on one specific theme
<h3>What is Word Choice?</h3>
This refers to the impact or effect that a certain diction has on a certain literary text.
Hence, we can see that the use of certain words by the speaker shows the effect and impact as they not only show emotions, they also show the desired effect on the readers.

Answer: Choice D</h3>
...he that was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied
============================================================
Explanation:
Frederick Douglass is describing the horrific conditions of what kind of food he ate and the conditions in which he had his meals. At the start of the paragraph, he describes the food itself (a corn meal called Mush). Then later on he describes how the food was served in a very degrading inhumane way (the food being served in a trough; effectively treating them as animals). Shortly after, he goes over how the food was eaten through a variety of means: use of oyster shells, shingles, or bare hands. None of which involves the regular utensils you'd expect such as a spoon.
At the very end of the excerpt, Frederick Douglass mentions that "He that ate the fastest got most; he was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied". This effectively means that even though the food itself was horrible, and the conditions degrading, people were still hungry and had no other choice. Also, even the people who were able to eat the most weren't truly/fully fed.
So in short, the last part of the excerpt describes that the slaves weren't fed enough. If we could narrow down the cited evidence as much as possible, the portion that mentions "few left the trough satisfied" is the thing you should focus on.
The answer should be B, please mark as brainliest!
