Knuckleball master, Tim Wakefield, launches his "difficult-to-hit" pitch to Daffy Duck who "winds up"
completely "Knuckled Under by Wakefield." Daffy mutters, "What a despicable pitch to hit!" as Tweety gets the
ride of his life. Since there's been no action in the outfield, Bugs Bunny burrows
his way to the infield to watch his pal Tim strike out Daffy, again! Meanwhile, tempting the Road Runner with free bird seed,
Wile E. Coyote prepares to tag out his rival's attempt to steal third base. This should make for an explosive play!
