A man of few words when he was playing, the all-time strikeout king still had much to say, and he neatly inscribed a good deal of it on this pristine, snow white OMLB Selig baseball. A 9/10 quality Nolan Ryan signature on the sweet spot is complemented in each surrounding panel by inscriptions as follows: 7 No-Hitters, 61 Shutouts, '69 Miracle Mets, 383 K's in '73, 5,714 K's, 324 Wins, H.O.F. '99 and finally a pithy "Don't mess with Texas!" in the final open area. No specific mention of sparring with Robin Ventura, but perhaps we can infer something from the "Don't mess with Texas!" ditty. Comes with a shiny Nolan Ryan hologram and COA by PSA/DNA.
