Nolan Ryan Baseball's Badass

John Wayne, Chuck Norris, Nolan Ryan...American badasses.

I saw this clip again the other day...when a young cocky Robin Ventura charged the mound against a baseball legend twice his age and paid the price.

Living 100 miles from chicago, I do remember that well, while Ryan was one bad MF, Ventura did tackle him in the end of the fray which was lost in point due to the amount of players storming the mound. Neither one got hurt, I have heard they are actually good friends now and after both retired, they did charity events together and did some comical mock of thier fight for some shits and giggles.
Nolan was a bad ass that had a nasty fastball and a great competitor I really admire him

I was just talking about this ass-whoopin the other day. Nolan was my idol as a child and I still think he’s the greatest power pitcher of all time
