A 16 year old girl Eri Yoshida is going to get drafted to play with mature men in Japan due to her knuckleball. This has got to be the best pitch.

Best pitch for what?
Gender equity ---
Novel idea to increase fan attendance ---
Yellow rag journalism ---
Events of this nature are normally implemented with alternative goals in mind. While this 16 year old teenager may awe spectators with her ability to throw a knuckleball I doubt she will awe many professional hitters.
Got any video of her? What an interesting story!
I agree with Fungo. I wonder how she will deal with a come backer at her head at 100mph ?
That is the most assinine thing I have ever heard of.

Sort of reminds me of the stunts Bill Veeck used to perform:
1. Using a midget named Eddie Gaedel in a major league game.
2. Having White Sox wear shorts one season.
Still would like to see a video of her, though :-) Post it if you got it!
