I am one simple word, but I mean different things
One of my meanings brings great forceful swings,
The other of me, may have curve, like the first...
But only one meaning can help quench a thirst.
One of my meanings will often bring cheers,
Either of them could hold a few beers.
What word am I?

clever, but not too challenging
awesome!
Pitcher is not a simple word
Maybe Not For A Person With Your Intelligence AbdulAziz But It's A Simple Word For The Rest Of The World!
egg, don't be a ****, play nice...
unfortunately this one doesnt work in Britain, coz we dont really use the word pitcher! Never mind, it was good any way
how about "round"?
I thought it was "mug".
This seemed easy, especially when I saw the answer - but I just couldn't think of it! However, the world is a calmer place now - and all my mysteries are solved!
I didn't get it, it makes perfect sense. Good teaser. I like the mug answer as well.
I thought it was easy but good. Wonder what Gayle meant when she said "all her mysteries are solved"
cutebug, you're cute as long as you
you don't start buggin' me!
Another mystery - where are my old friends Auntie Sis and doehead? I miss you guys!

i guessed it after five minutes re reading. took me a while. that was really hard.
very clever! I liked it
Cute, but easy. Maybe the old brain is working today.
I don't understand how mug would fit as an answer.
I'm from the UK and like heltatw, don't really use the word 'pitcher'.
I thought it was 'glass', which can just about pass for a verb!

I got picture.
I got stuck on the words cheer and beer and thought t was a stein.
A got pitcher, but belt works reasonably well also
I started with "pitch", but came to "pitcher" by the end. Then I had to go back and try to see if it fit each line. I didn't get the joke in the last line until I thought about it a bit. That was the best part of the teaser!
In both definitions, some pitchers can hold more beers than others.
Admittedly, this is for American audiences, but a fun, funny, good teaser.
