Dock Ellis and the LSD No-No: An Animated Short


If you aren't familiar with the tale of Dock Ellis and his no-hitter while under the influence of LSD, here's a brief summary:
"I was in Los Angeles, and the team was playing in San Diego , but I didn't know it. I had taken LSD..... I thought it was an off-day, that's how come I had it in me. I took the LSD at noon. At 1pm, his girlfriend and trip partner looked at the paper and said, "Dock, you're pitching today!"

The video above comes courtesy of the No Mas crew, which is like  family around these parts (since they do The Rumble). The narration is by Ellis himself in a radio interview on March 29, 2008 on NPR.

This is garbage. What the hell is wrong with you SN? My kids like baseball, so please do not show this ignorant individual on drugs.
