In the Dock

leave a comment

Hilarious / cautionary tale of Dock Ellis pitching a no-hitter, while off his tits on LSD:

The middling hurler — whose career record stands at 138-119 — claims he dropped acid not knowing it was a game day, and took the hill despite being “high as a Georgia pine.” He tells viewers about imagining Jimi Hendrix in the batter’s box, Richard Nixon calling balls and strikes and coping with a ball that constantly shifted in size.

Wikipedia has the full story.
