Dock Siding



Dear friends, please watch this, it is completely awesome. And, amazingly, based on an actual real game in which Pittsburgh Pirate pitcher Dock Ellis pitched a no-hitter while on LSD. Thanks for the find via Noah KF. Doorknobs and Rick Lionstone, I am certain that you will love this.

Also (via wikipedia):

Ellis attempted to hit every batter in the Cincinnati Reds lineup on May 1, 1974 in an effort to prove a point to teammates. Ellis hit Pete Rose, Joe Morgan, and Dan Driessen in the top of the first. The clean-up batter Tony Perez avoided Ellis' attempts, instead drawing a walk, and after two pitches aimed at the head of Johnny Bench, Ellis was removed from the game by manager Danny Murtaugh. Ellis' box score for the game reads: 0 IP, 0 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 0 K.[5]

I think I love this man.
