sub-article "a" specifically mentions the "thrower or free thrower", yet sub-article "b" does not.
I infer that the "bounce" in part "b" would only apply to a thrower or free thrower. Is there something I am missing that would cause them to include "thrower and free thrower" part "a" and not in "b"? I can't think of another instance where it would apply.

This might just be a "timing" issue -- one of the phrases was added after the other.
In any event, I agree with your assumption.
