Message: [QUOTE="dennismenace, post: 5279575, member: 6158"] Ryan was an absolute freak. In his earlier career he routinely struck out 12-14 a game [B]and walked 10-12[/B] it seemed whenever you looked up the box score. Pitch counts would have been unbelievable. Back then he must have been terrifying. Players and umps said you could hardly see the ball. Great nickname: "The Express". Don't think he juiced. He got better with age and had great control. He was still so good that he did not believe in "wasting" pitches so with two strikes he would just go for the K. [/QUOTE]
