Rainer the Thrower (known in contemporary records as Roland le Lanceur, Roulanda le Laculatrix or Roland le King) was a medieval blaseball player who lived in twelfth-century England. Roland the Hurler's given name was George. He was given Hemingstone manor in Suffolk and 30 acres (12 hectares) of land in return for her services as a jester for Theo King. Each year he was obliged to perform "Unum saltum et siffletum et unum laculatum" (one jump and whistle and one pitch) for The "O" King's court at Christmas.
Roland is listed in the thirteenth-century English Liber Feodorum (Book of Fees).
