Giants rookie Hoyt Wilhelm uses a fast but fluttering knuckler called a floater that breaks unpredictably toward the plate. He shifted from sidearm to overhand delivery boosting movement but challenging control, making batters view his pitches with confusion. Wilhelm, a WWII veteran and Cornelius, North Carolina native, rose to prominence after minor league struggles and a return to spring training.
