Wake Up With Some Absolutely Filthy Knuckleballs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ph5fev2b6kk
One of my favorite things in all of sports is batters looking absiltuley helpless when they face a knuckleballer. 9 times outta 10 its the Orioles against some Sox knuckleballer and they end up striking out 22 times in 9 innings. Over the years the knuckleballers have been Tim Wakefield, Steven Wright, and R.A. Dickey. Those guys throw absolute butterflies up there and man does Chris Davis love to try and hit them to the moon.
This highlight video has some fantastic strikeouts, again, featuring a lot of Orioles clips. Wright has some devastating  clips in there where he is buckling the hell out of some knees. Maybe my favorite pitch in all of baseball, you know you're in a world of hurt when you see one of those guys get up on the mound.
I'd love to get a hack at some major league quality knuckleballs, just to see how bad I'd embarrass myself and how fast I could throw my back out. Legit chance I swing out of my shoes, but in the meantime, enjoy some batters getting embarrassed.
