I was reading a recent article about the Seattle Mariner’s pitcher Cliff Lee getting ejected from a Cactus League spring training game, when someone posted information about a scuffle between Nolan Ryan and Robin Ventura way back in the day.
As a kid, my favorite player was Nolan Ryan. He was like 80 years old, yet still better than most other pitchers. What happened one day was that Ryan beaned Ventura with his first pitch, and Robin didn’t like that so he charged the mound.
Walmart memories
Hilarity ensues, as Nolan Ryan calmly puts him into a headlock and starts whipping him with his fists of fury. It’s so humorous, if sadly violent, that Walmart sells an autographed photo of the beating. The fact that they sell that photo is way funnier than the actual fight. Way to go Walmart!
