Sandy's throw to first base was short.
Only the prepositional phrase is correct.

Macrame always gives her a wonderful felling of restfulness.
You missed the direct and indirect objects.

Those mustard pickles taste too sour for me.
Sour is not a direct object.

Maine eastern Boundatory is the western edge of the Atlantic ocean.
Edge is not a verb. You missed the subject complement.

The minister called the old lady a saint.
There is no indirect object in this sentence. What about a subject complement?

The only car for him is one of those new GTOs.
You missed a prepositional phrase. One is not a verb.

The Committe elected george Chairman
No indirect object. What about a object complement?

The Gerrards consider their son a genius.

See above.
