Phil Niekro Jr. must've been the greatest knuckleball teacher ever, teaching not one but two sons to throw the knuckleball at a major league level. Phil and Joe have the MLB record for most wins by a pair of brothers, narrowly beating out Jim and Gaylord Perry.

I really like these FOTG subsets from 2003 Leaf Certified Materials. Chasing one of each Hall of Famer, but not all the variations. That would be more insane. Another pipe dream of mine.
