Nolan Ryan was one of my favorite players. I loved it when he beat Robin Ventura's arse.

Nolan still making money off it. Doubt Ventura sells many of these.

Am I the only one that thinks that big "fight" has gotten blown out of proportion ? Sure,the age difference made Ventura look bad and Ryan got a couple of licks in,but their part lasted about 5 seconds. Its not like it was some long ordeal where Ventura begged for mercy .

Looked like Nolan was giving him noogies. Whats fricking hilarious is that Ventura is the one that charged the mound and ended up looking like a doofus. You know he probably got ragged by by most of the league after that poor decision.

oh,no doubt Ventura looks silly.

But if you didn't know better you'd think Ryan broke his jaw and pulled his pants down.

Ventura charging the mound reminds me of the story of the dog chasing the car. What the heck would it do if it caught it? Its clear Ventura had no idea what to do once he got to Ryan.

That's the answer to the trivia question "Who is the only player to get 6 hits off of Nolan Ryan in one game?"
