From the archives: Dock Ellis, LSD and other adventures - Sports Bizarre

  • Summary

  • In an All-Star career, Dock Ellis managed to win a World Series, pitch a no-hitter on LSD, hit every batter that came to the plate in a game and set a clubhouse on fire.

    But for every bit of craziness, Ellis was also ahead of his time as a spokesperson on a range of issues from free agency to racism while devoting his life to combating alcohol and drug abuse.

    Titus O'Reily and Mick Molloy look at the complex career of one of the most interesting athletes of all time.
