Almost Cooperstown
We're a father and son who love to talk and argue about baseball! Baseball is the professional sport that has the longest history so there is a lot to talk about! We launched Almost Cooperstown noting that baseball contains a long history of players that, for whatever reasons, have been shunned by the electors of the Hall of Fame. Consequently here are many 'Almost' players still waiting their turn for induction. With less than 1.4% of the now more than 23,000 players in the HOF, we feel there should be more players included. In these podcasts we also discuss current seasons & trends. Please send any messages to almostcooperstown@gmail.com.

We were actually kind of shocked to find out that there have only been 32 knuckleball pitchers in MLB history. Hoyt Wilhelm has the only no-hitter for a knuckleballer blanking the Yankees in 1958. The Yankees won the WS that season. There are some notable and memorable names of the 32 but also many that most fans have never heard of.

Why aren't there more knuckleball pitchers? Listen to this episode to find out!
