I can’t think of the knuckleball without thinking of Charlie Lau.

Charlie Lau was a highly acclaimed hitting coach, helping George Brett, Hal McRae and a lot of other hitters. I don’t know of any connection with the knuckleball. Perhaps you are referring to Charlie Hough. He threw the knuckleball in the majors until he was 50.
