Tim Wakefield, R.A. Dickey, Phil Niekro, Charlie Hough, Jim Bouton, Wilbur Wood. Run time: 90 mins. Aspect ratio: 1.78: 1. Originally released: 2012. Language: English. Factory Sealed Brand New From acclaimed filmmakers Ricki Stern and Annie Sandburg (The Devil Came on Horseback; Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work) this heartfelt, funny and deeply engaging film delves into the legendary subculture of the knuckleball and the brotherhood of men who share the drive, imagination and humility to throw baseball's slowest, most disrespected pitch. Filmed throughout the 2011 season, KNUCKLEBALL! Follows 37 year-old R.A. Dickey (New York Mets and 2012 All-Star) and 18-year veteran Tim Wakefield, formerly the oldest player in the major leagues and an icon of the Boston Red Sox, detailing their personal and professional triumphs of the season while exploring the bond between them and their only allies, the five living retired knuckleballers-Charlie Hough, Wilbur Wood, Jim Bouton, Tom Candiotti, and Hall of Famer Phil Niekro. KNUCKLEBALL! #is the story of these extraordinary men, and the sacrifices they made to a pitch that would come to define their lives.
