Ryan pitched for four different teams and in four different decades, but always managed to attract the attention of the media: As a wild, fireballing rookie with the New York Mets who soaked his fingers in pickle brine; as a rising star with the Angels who dispensed snake oil in the clubhouse, broke Sandy Koufax's records and pitched four no-hitters within two years; as the established power pitcher in Houston who pitched a record 5th no-hitter in and continued to chalk up strikeouts; and as the ageing but still dominating Texas Ranger who passed the 5,000 strikeout mark and pitched his sixth and seventh no-hitters after his 40th birthday. This book relives the highlights of a 27 year career: The no-hitters, the landmark strikeouts, the records, and the man who was The Ryan Express.
