Gently ricochet off the falling droplets as it meanders its way toward the plate.

Knuckleballs thrive on humidity, because the dense air makes the ball wobble more (more resistance)...it will probably not be very effective, and the Indians should be able to tee it off. If I were the Indians, I would sit on that damn thing in the middle of the plate and wait for it. Plus, if the ball is wet he will have little to no control (even more so than usual)

My old coach is the all-time saves leader at michigan state univ. and he had just the nastiest knuckleball in the world and I called him and asked him about it in the rain he said the rain had very little effect on his knuckleball.

If the drops are large enough and it rains hard enough, the rain drops may cause the ball to rotate.

Weight it down a bit.
Unless it was heavy rain, I would worry about it (If I was wakefield)

Like a spitball with no rotation.
