First million dollar MLB contract.
Looks like he’s about to throw a 100 mph fastball at a reporter for asking a dumb question
The good old days. Ryan, Mike Scott, Niekro, JR Richard. Games were so fun back then in the DOME!
I was about 10 years old at my dads work when he came in getting supplies for his ranch. Awesome guy.
My favorite all time player. I have watched pitch 5 times in a rangers uniform. Best sports doc ever was facing Nolan. That dude was and is still a stud.
