Think You Could Hit A MLB Knuckler?

I don't think I could hit that in a million years. I don't really know that I could even catch it.

(That pitch was thrown by R.A. Dickey during his 2012 National League Cy Young Award winning, National League Strikeout Leading, National League Shutout Leading season.)

Yeah, sure, no problem...as soon as I get done catching that fly out of mid-air with a pair of chopsticks.

I'm with you. I think catching it would be tough enough. It looks like the catcher closes his eyes if I'm seeing correctly.

What'd Yogi say? The best way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling, and pick it up. :lol2:

Check this out...

I could foul it off. You never stated it had to be in fair territory. :whistling:

No. Catcher has a special mitt. So, why would I think I could hit the thing?

Sure I could hit it. I'm bunting.

Which makes me doubt you'd hit it even more.:lol2:

If you bunted 10 times, I'm betting you miss all ten.

 

I'm gonna start working on a knuckler in a couple days.

Give it a shot. I bet if you threw a knuckler at the plate 10 times, at least one is going to graze the bat that I'm going to stick out belt high and not move!

I thought it was a rite of passage in KY to learn how to throw a knuckleball at a very early age. I can still chuck a nasty one at my advanced age.

I think I would have a better chance of hitting that than I would a 95 MPH fastball or a 89 MPH slider or a wicked curve ball that starts at my ear.
