A time which the definition of a word or the lack of a definition caused an argument.

Subject: Sandy's throw to the first base. Within this subject, you have an adjective Sandy's, and the central subject, throw. To the first base is the prepositional phrase because it begins with a preposition word TO. 
Verb: was short. Here, you have the predicate word WAS (which is a linking verb connecting the subject and the complement) and the subject complement SHORT (which is actually adjective predicate).
