A knuckleball in a baseball card! @MickeyJannis friend @RMaxwellSAU commissioned me to create a special set of cards as a surprise for him, his friends, and family. Mickey made his MLB debut in 2021, so to commemorate the day, I was sent a ball from the game, and created these. Ryan recently showed them to Mickey and he signed them! Ryan, thank you for allowing me to be a part of such a cool thing, and Mickey, I'm so pleased to hear you love them!

I’m obsessed with knuckleballers and believe throwing a knuckleball is an undervalued skill. I even tried running a knuckleball program back in the day.

Tell Darvish and Yamamoto “winner gets Roki Sasaki” and see them both pitch the game of their lives.

First time seeing a pro with a 3-finger grip. Just shows you can grip a knuckleball however you want as long as you take spin off the ball! – at Saltillo, Coahuila de Zaragoza

George Kirby is still pushing to throw his knuckleball in games. He throws it in flatground catch and usually throws a few in bullpens. Obviously he's going to stick with his two fastballs, slider and splitter as his primary weapons. Could we see one every once in a while?

It’s crazy to see to see the data here. Zero spin with velo from 65-80 mph, vertical break from -13 to 12 and horizontal break from -10 to 4. That kind of variation would be terrible with other pitches, but it’s exactly why the knuckler works. – at Brownsburg, IN
