My favorite Nolan Ryan moment is when he
wore out Robin Ventura after the idiot
charged the mound.:clap: :D

i was there for that game and the next, used to live in the area that long ago, the next night was great. it happened to be free baseball give-away night and when ricky went toleft field the crowd started to chant "5000 strikeout" and he got so mad that he dropped his glove turned around and flicked the whole left field crowd off. that in turn made in rain baseballs in left field, the game was put on hold while the baseballs had to be collected, what a time nolan gave us. thanks mr. ryan.
