I remember a few years back a Baseball reporter (I think it was Kurkjian) talking about an early assignment (still 1980's) where he needed to interview Ryan after the game (Ryan was starting pitcher). He said "Ryan threw around 200 pitches, but I had to interview him while he spent 45 minutes on an excercise bike after the game ended." Ryan believed in working on the legs regularly and on proper mechanics while pitching. He said many times that a fastball with proper mechanics takes less out of the arm than any other pitch. [/QUOTE]
