Flux AI: hand holding ball

A close-up image of a hand tightly gripping a weathered, slightly scuffed baseball. The baseball is held in a pitcher's grip, fingers spread expertly across the seams. The hand is that of an experienced player, with visible veins and slight wear from years of practice. The background is a blurred outfield, with the focus primarily on the hand and the ball, emphasizing the anticipation of an upcoming pitch. The lighting is natural, casting subtle shadows and highlighting the texture of the skin and the ball's surface.
