Happy 80th Birthday to Nolen Ryan, Texas Rangers legend 🎂 Ryan spent his entire career in Arlington, where he famously perfected the knuckleball, racking up 6,714 career strikeouts, second most in MLB history after Rodger Clemens.  Ryan also threw 17 no-hitters in his career, including the first no-hitter ever thrown at Coors Field, both of which are still MLB records to this day.  Hardest knuckleball ever thrown. Happy birthday, Nolen 🐐⚾️
