Show notes

What was it like to throw over 300 innings in a season or 14 innings in one day--and never need arm surgery? Chuck Garfien speaks with former White Sox knuckleballer Wilbur Wood about his extraordinary career in the 1960's and 1970's. They talk about why his knuckleball was so tough to hit, how he was able to start games on only two days rest, if knuckleballers will ever return to the game, and more. Chuck has been wanting to interview Wilbur for years. It finally happened! (4:00) - The magic of the knuckleball. How did Wilbur throw it? (13:15) - How was he was able to throw so many innings? (20:10) - Why aren't there any knuckleball pitchers in the game today? (33:00) - How he became a knuckleball pitcher with the White Sox
