All the talk about knuckle ball pitchers not one of the "voices mentioned that the Yankees

[CaliCuse]

The Yankees had a according to Rizzuto and Yogi a great knuckle ball pitcher that never saw the mound.Apparently Mickey Mantle was able to throw that pitch extremely effectively and wanted to get out there but was denied that opportunity. I think that was a wise decision on the part of his managers. Mikey was far more adept at hitting a baseball 450'.
