RIP Phil best knuckle ball pitcher ever. Man so many famous people at the top of their industry have died this year.

Loved watching him as a kid when he was a veteran on the braves. I still remember watching “Phil Niekro day”

RIP.

Probably the leader in bad swings and passed balls created.

Anyone ever played any baseball and seen a decent knuckle ball come towards you when you are at the plate? It floats and moves like no other.

It's wild. A true art. RIP Phil. You were the best...

Funny line I read this morning, Bobby Murcer once said, "hitting the knuckleball was like trying to eat jello with chopstsicks''
