Dickey's knuckleball was floating and darting and fooling the Braves. He allowed just three hits through five innings and no runner got past second until McCann homered.There is nothing better to watch than a ballgame where a pitcher has his knuckleball working. Every fat guy watching TV swears he would kill the thing, but the best hitters in the game can't touch it. Yeah, that's right, I'm talking about you, Cubs Dad.
His knuckleball "was dancing all over the place," McCann said. "We didn't really string anything together."
