This was in 2004 and Danny DiLiberto seems to have not known about this shot, it has been used by many players in recent times. Who was the first player to come up with this shot, was it Efren?

I've got that match on DVD. BP wins in a long battle. Helluva shot. You could see Billy shakin his head. Don't blame him.
I defy anyone here to shoot that shot as well as Efren in 10 tries. I gave up after 3 tries
To be fair I have seen Efren shoot that 2 railer a dozen times and thats his best. You do realize he is playing the cueball and never expects to make the ball.
If you've ever worked on jawing balls, that shot shows up as a byproduct. There is a whole genre of rattle shots that will reveal itself shooting just outside the limits. I do it for the precision workout.
Ah, my post said shoot it 'as well' as Efren.
Tony Chohan shoots it pretty well
5 Shots by Efren with number 2 being off the point of the side pocket. Of course the number 1 shot is the Z shot against Earl.

Was Freddy Bentivegna the first person to come up with this shot?
How many times playing 9 ball did a poorly hit come off a point and go in another pocket?
Lots and lots of times, how about since pockets were put on a table? Somebody probably intentionally played the shot early in 1P days
