Knuckleballing

There is hope to become a Major League Baseball pitcher even if you don’t have a great arm. Many pitchers have succeeded in the Majors without the benefit of a 95mph fastball. What’s their secret? The knuckleball. Boston pitcher Tim Wakefield is the only regular knuckleball pitcher in the Major Leagues, but he is unhittable when his pitch is working. The ball is thrown with no spin, so it is heavily influenced by factors like wind. This causes it to dance around the plate.
