Does anyone else find it odd that Dock Ellis, when listed on a roster, would appear as "Ellis, D"? Say it aloud ("ell-ess-dee"). When I first read this story years ago, I dismissed it as an urban legend or drug lore. Apparently not!
I been reading up on his LSD No hitter, and find this articles information to be way off. I will correct it with the proper information latter.
The way the article is written makes it appear that Ellis beaned Jackson during the 1971 All-Star game. I reverted User:Mojo Len's edit because it was unsourced and the tone was wrong for an encyclopedia. A little researching turned up an anecdotal post about the beaning occurring in 1976 because of the '71 home run, but I can't find anything that qualifies as a source that meets Wikipedia standards. Anyone else have more/better info? CarbonX ( talk) 05:28, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Because the no-hitter was the first game of a double header, Ellis was forced to keep track of the pitch count for the night game.

I'll be reviewing this article, along with a couple of others within a day or two. Secret account 05:01, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
Yea I feel this is one of the few articles from you that I could review independently that is from my subject area. Considering I'm very familiar with the Yankee subjects that you mostly have in GA reviews right now, I could be a help making the article achieve GA/FA considering I have access to the proper sourcing including many books from that era I own. If I review them, however it might be a burden because of my access to the sourcing. I'm a bit familiar with Ellis as well, who had one of the most colorful personalities in a era filled with them, I think making a proper GA review here will be worth it. I'll review it tomorrow in the afternoon hopefully, right now it's 2 AM so I need to sleep. Thanks Secret account 06:21, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
Reviewing now....
To be continued....
See what else you can find on Ellis. On hold for now. Secret account 01:52, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
How's this review coming along? Wizardman 02:29, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
Yes I been MIA hardly have time anymore sorry about that and I saw the email (somehow it landed in my spam folder so sorry for the late reply there), most of my concerns been fixed, I'll comment on a PR or FAC if it happens, just email me, passing. Secret account 22:18, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
This is a popular story, and well referenced, but there is some skepticism that probably should be in the article about this event. Bill Christine, a beat reporter of the Pirates disputes the story, though I wish I could find a better source than deadspin. [1] Two kinds of pork ( talk) 06:05, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
Despite Elequate's unsubstantiated claims that "dozens" of journalists believe they LSD claim, the statement in the lead reflects journalists who were at the game and were well familiar with the workings of the team. Those views are considerably stronger then any presented so far, so they are certainly not "undue". As Ellis is widely known for this claim, it must be tempered by the highly reliable sources who cast doubt on this claim. Two kinds of pork ( talk) 18:12, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Hmm, new information. It looks like Charley Feeney wasn't in attendance at all, according to Charley Feeney. He did write up a story about the no-hitter later. But we can't reference Bill Christine's recollections of Feeney's "on-site" speculation if Feeney says he wasn't there. For the record, Feeney is still alive, and is a Baseball Hall of Fame sportswriter. I'll fix it before a Feeney-fan notices. __ E L A Q U E A T E 16:27, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
