Ever wonder “What is a knuckleball?”

The knuckleball is thrown with very little spin

The path of the ball is subject to the whims of the elements.

The pitcher himself has no idea where the ball is going which makes it incredibly difficult to hit.

Former big league catcher Bob Uecker uttered the classic line on how to catch a knuckleball:

“I just wait until the ball stops rolling and then I pick it up.”
