This is because the game assigns pitch types randomly for all pitchers. So quite a number may have the knuckleball as one of the pitches they throw. And this would explain the frequency of mentions in the PBP. I'm an advocate of using the Neyer/James Guide to Pitchers as the basis for a historical file that will assign the real life pitch types to players according to history.
