This is a doc about Dock Ellis, the legendary major league pitcher that pitched a no-hitter on LSD. I often cite this tale when teaching talkdown techniques. Honestly, I don't know baseball at all. I just go for the Bruce Lee bobbleheads. The acid trip part is really only one small facet of the doc. It's more about baseball history, racism, and drug addiction and alcoholism overall. It was pretty fascinating as I know so little about it, but got a little long-winded in the end. What a fascinating character Dock was.
