Morphology

pitchable = pitch (transparent) = pitch + able

Formed by the productive suffix '-able' on the verb 'pitch', so the meaning 'able to be pitched' is directly inferable.

Etymology

Pitchable comes from pitch, which means 'to throw' or 'to present', as in 'pitch a ball' or 'pitch an idea', and the ending -able which means 'can be'. So something pitchable can be thrown, set up, or presented.
