Let's break this sentence down:
Sandy's throw to first base was short.
- Prepositional phrases: There is one prepositional phrase: <em>to first base </em>since there is a preposition (to) and an object (first base) altogether.
- The subject is <em>Sandy's throw</em>.
- The verb within the sentence is <em>was</em>.
- There is one complement in the sentence which is subject compliment: <em>short. </em>Remember that subject complements give us more information about the subject and they usually occur after linking verbs (seem, be, become) and, in this sentence, the subject complement is preceded by the verb <em>was.</em>
