The Knuckleball is a baseball pitch that not everyone can throw. It's a difficult pitch and difficult to catch hence, some catchers use large mitts specialized for knuckleballs.[1]
Grip
The ball is gripped with the fingertips, extending the fingers in the moment of release, to spin the ball in the opposite direction of a regular fastball. By doing so, the ball flies with zero rotation making it break in random directions.
