The Knuckleball
In the game of baseball, it might not seem at first glance that there is much strategy involved in the game. However, there is an enormous amount of strategy that goes into every pitch in the game. Pitchers have different pitches in their repertoire, which can rise, fall, and curve on their way to the batter in an attempt to fool the batter. However, there is one pitch which is unlike any other. It is so challenging that only a tiny percentage of pitchers in history have ever thrown it. Learn more about the knuckleball, how it works and why it is so rare on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
