Nolan Ryan Speaker Profile

Nolan Ryan was born on January 31, 1947 in Refugio, Texas and current president of the Texas Rangers. Ryan played in a major league record 27 seasons for the New York Mets, California Angels, Houston Astros, and Texas Rangers, from 1966 to 1993.

Ryan, a hard-throwing right-handed pitcher, threw pitches that were regularly recorded above 100 mph (160 km/h), even past the age of 40. The media tagged him, or more specifically his pitching, as "The Ryan Express-€.

While his lifetime winning percentage was a relatively pedestrian .526, Ryan was an eight-time MLB All-Star, and his 5,714 career strikeouts rank first in baseball history. He leads the runners-up, Randy Johnson and Roger Clemens, by 1,052 strikeouts as of May 30, 2008. Similarly, Ryan's 2,795 bases on balls lead second-place Steve Carlton by 962, walking over 50% more hitters than any other pitcher in Major League history. Ryan is the all-time leader in no-hitters with seven, three more than any other pitcher. He is tied with Bob Feller for the most one-hitters, with 12. Ryan also pitched 18 two-hitters.
