CliveBut the correct answer is not 'battery'.

Actually, it is.

4. Baseball. The pitcher and catcher.

I would phrase the statement something like this:

Together the pitcher and catcher constitute the "battery."

Together the pitcher and catcher are the "battery."

Together the pitcher and catcher make up the "battery."
