Every catcher has to learn a knuckleball, it’s light enough both in velo and grip to not worry about injuries, and it gives them a way to mess with their own pitcher

Starting pitchers laughing in the dugout during a 12-1 loss because *their* catcher just threw a knuckleball for a strikeout. Everything about this is why I love baseball so much.

Bring back position players being fun on the mound. The eephuses are so boring
Joey was still probably late on it
He sorta looks like Walt Terrell
Lmfao. Looked nasty too
The stache too makes him look like a dead ball era pitcher
He’s the [only « pitcher » to have thrown a knuckleball](https://screwball.com/search?q=Most+Knuckleballs+thrown+by+a+pitcher+this+season) so far this season
