Actors Profile
Lynn Nolan Ryan, Jr . (born January 31, 1947 in Refugio, Texas) is a retired Major League Baseball pitcher and current president and partial owner of the Texas Rangers . While his lifetime winning percentage was a relatively pedestrian .526, Ryan was an eight-time MLB All-Star, and his 5,714 career strikeouts rank first in baseball history . He leads the runner-up, Randy Johnson, by 839 strikeouts as of October 4, 2009 . Similarly, Ryan's 2,795 bases on balls lead second-place Steve Carlton by 962—walking over 50% more hitters than any other pitcher in Major League history . In 1965, after graduating from Alvin High School, Ryan was drafted by the New York Mets in the 12th round of the 1965 Major League Baseball Draft . He was assigned to a minor league team in the Appalachian League called the Marion Mets in Marion, Virginia . When Ryan was called up to the New York club the following year, he was the second-youngest player in the league . His first strikeout victim was Pat Jarvis, and he gave up his first major league home run to Joe Torre, future big-league manager . On April 18, 1970, Ryan tied a Mets record by striking out 15 batters in one game . Four days later, Ryan's teammate, Tom Seaver, topped it with 19 against the San Diego Padres. Ryan has credited his time with Seaver and the Mets with turning him from just a flamethrower to a pitcher. However, by 1971 Ryan had become increasingly frustrated and was considering retiring from baseball. His record for the season was 10–14. He told Mets management that he wasn't happy in New York and requested a trade. .
