was the first one I thought of! I remember him fondly. So much fun to watch. I don't know why more coaches don't teach kids to pitch sidearm or throw knuckleballs. I guess knucklers are harder to control, but throwing sidearm is a lot easier on arm and shoulder muscles and joints. Remember Kent Tekulve? Geez. Unhittable.
