nolan ryan


lynn nolan ryan “the express”
the best strikeout pitcher who ever played baseball. with a career that spanned 27 years, the express became known for his blazing fastball (known to be 104 miles per hour at times) and incredible endurance. as a young pitcher, nolan ryan seemed to be doomed for mediocrity, but in latter half of his career, his amazing strikeout capability and capacity to throw no-hitters ensured his place in the hall of fame. as a win’s pitcher, nolan ryan is one of the few members of the 300-wins club, and nearly had as many wins as losses (324-292), however, his 5,714 strikeouts is a record considered by many baseball fans, as untouchable.

nolan ryan also achieved fame in his fighting ability when the mound was charged by a batter, as is evident in a famous fight against robin ventura, who was 26 years old when he charged a 46 year old ryan after being nailed with a fastball. ryan put him in a headlock and punched him repeatedly.
nolan ryan is the all-time leader in strikeouts in major league baseball.
