A Quote by Dave Winfield

I guess I'm the only guy old enough to figure him (Nolan Ryan, 1-Hitter Game in 1991) out.

And when I retired, trust me, not only did Nolan Ryan, but the entire Ryan family had withdrawals from baseball. And it was tough.

Nolan Ryan

You don't face Nolan Ryan without your rest. He's the only guy I go against that makes me go to bed before midnight.

Reggie Jackson

Every hitter likes fastballs, just like everybody likes ice cream. But you don't like it when someone's stuffing it into you by the gallon. That's what it feels like when Nolan Ryan's thrown balls by you.

Reggie Jackson

Big Texas (Nolan Ryan) is here. The reason I like to keep Nolan around is he is a reminder that when we got done with the Sammy Sosa trade, there was still some talent on the Rangers.

George W. Bush

When I stood up there as a pinch hitter, I honestly believed I was the best hitter in the game. That's the only attitude to have.

Manny Mota

He's the strangest hitter in baseball. Figure him out one way and he'll kill you another.

Sandy Koufax

My dad wasn't a power hitter, and I didn't think I'd be a power hitter because the person I wanted to be like was him, and he was the one that taught me to play the game.

Ken Griffey Jr.

Nolan Ryan is pitching much better now that he has his curve ball straightened out.

Joe Garagiola

I copied (Shoeless Joe) Jackson's style because I thought he was the greatest hitter I had ever seen, the greatest natural hitter I ever saw. He's the guy who made me a hitter.

Babe Ruth

Just watching Chris Nolan direct was amazing. He is one of the most lovely people, which as you know doesn't always go hand-in-hand with great directors. But with Christopher Nolan, and there's only a few I think like him in Hollywood, that's absolutely true.

Suzanne Todd

I saw him (Barry Bonds) when he first broke in. He was a scrawny, skinny, 185-pound guy that had great talent. And then he turned himself into a freakin' power hitter with, what, 245, 250 pounds, and his head got twice the size. So, you know, you figure it out. I know he likes to go to the gym. We all like to go to the gym. You just don't get that big.

Gary Carter

Everybody is so sensitive, you'd think Nolan Ryan was pitching.

Thurman Munson

There's different kinds of laughs. It's like a baseball lineup: this guy's your power hitter, this guy gets on base, this guy works out walks. If everybody does their job, we're gonna win.

Jerry Seinfeld

Needless to say, I have more no-hitters than Nolan Ryan.

Ernie Harwell

The game of baseball is a game of failure because it's so difficult to play. A 300 hitter, a superstar fails seven out of ten times at the plate. So what does that tell you about the game and its difficulty?

Goose Gossage

I never faced a pitcher with better stuff than Nolan Ryan.
