We’ve seen incredible pitches over the second half of the season, and you’ve been voting all year for your favorite pitches. Now that the dust has settled, this week we will be hosting a tournament to crown the Nastiest Pitching GIF of the Second Half. Sixteen pitches will enter, who will win?

It’s been a while since the First Half GIF Tournament, so here’s a reminder of the basic rules:

– All GIFs were pulled from the fourteen GIF of the Week competitions we’ve had so far this season.

– Every winner was granted an automatic bid, with the extra slots being hand selected among other finalists.

– There were two instances of repeat winners, and we included both to face-off in the first round.

– Votes will last until 8:00am EST the following morning, with the next round starting at 10:00am every morning. The winner being revealed Monday morning next week.

Take a look at the contest’s bracket:
