Knuckleballer Chelsea Baker is the Real Deal

The Knuckleball Princess.

Chelsea Baker is making her name known as she mows down hitters for the Durant High baseball team. As a junior, Baker is 2-0 this season with an impressive 0.78 ERA. Baker relies on her knuckleball, which she perfected with some help from former MLB pitchers Joe Niekro and Tim Wakefield.

In 2010, Baker was featured in this video from ESPN's "E:60."

Awesome story!
