The way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
How do you catch a knuckleball? You wait until it stops rolling, then go pick it up.
There are two theories on hitting the knuckleball. Unfortunately, neither of them works.
I'm the kind of person that if I try to throw it hard, it doesn't come out as good. So my whole thought process is to stay smooth, stay on top of the ball, and just get my hand out in front.
I'm missing a knuckle, it's crushed inside my hand at the moment.
I lost the good stuff on my fastball. I had to come up with something to keep me in the league. The knuckler rescued me then.
I started in for the ball but I just couldn't get it. I should have caught it because I was used to catching everything on the sandlots. But they hit the ball a lot harder in the major leagues and I just couldn't reach the ball this time.
I just like the ball in my hands whether I'm running it or catching it.
Keep your head on the ball. You've got to hit it first, then look where it goes. People get in trouble when they look for where the ball's going, and they haven't even hit it yet.
Never reach for the knuckleball; I just let it come to me.
I couldn't throw a knuckleball if my life depended on it.
