I remember when one of the Niekro brothers (I think it was Phil) pitched in an All-Star game. The catcher had a hell of a time working with him -- I think there were two or three passed balls in the inning he worked, just because the ball moved around so strangely.

Should be interesting to see how Wakefield's catcher fares.
