On May 29, 1976, Joe Niekro hit the only home run of his big league career, and he hit it off his older brother, Phil. Joe Niekro had a total of 973 at-bats in his career, and his one round-tripper contributed to a 4-3 win for the Astros over the Braves.
his older brother teaches him how to throw the knuckler and that’s how he says thank you.
😄
Knuckler, shmuckler–Phil had to go up and in on him later, right?
I would hope so!
