On this date in baseball history, former Texas Rangers pitcher Nolan Ryan was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. On Jan. 5, 1999, the expected happened, as Ryan, the 26-year veteran who changed the face of the Rangers organization in the last five seasons of his career, earned his ticket to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Ryans selection was [url=https://www.justprotitans.com/denico-autry-jerseys]Denico Autry Jersey[/url] near-unanimous by the Baseball Writers A sociation of America. At the time, 491 of the BBWAAs 497 voters selected Ryan, giving him a vote percentage of 98.79. Only four players, as of 2021, had better percentages: Tom Seaver (a former Ryan teammate with the New York Mets), Ken Griffey Jr., Derek Jeter and Mariano [url=https://www.justprotitans.com/derick-roberson-jerseys]Derick Roberson Jersey[/url] Rivera, who is the only player unanimously elected to the Hall. Despite playing just five seasons for the Rangers, Ryan selected a Rangers cap for his plaque in Cooperstown. With the Rangers, Ryan nailed down his place in Cooperstown by hurling his sixth and seventh no-hitters, notching his 5,000th strikeout, and claiming his 300th career win. Ryans career ended with a Major League-leading 5,714 career strikeouts and [url=https://www.justprotitans.com/nick-dzubnar-jerseys]Nick Dzubnar Jersey[/url] seven career no-hitters, along with the most games with 15 more strikeouts (26), and the most strikeouts in a single season (383). Ryan played 27 seasons, the most of any Major League player. With the Rangers, Ryan went 51-39, with a 3.43 ERA, and 939 strikeouts. But, beyond the stats [url=https://www.justprotitans.com/amani-bledsoe-jerseys]Amani Bledsoe Jersey[/url] he put up, Ryan gave the Rangers a legitimate superstar for the first time in its history, a known baseball name and was still pitching like he was in his prime, even though he was in his 40s by that point.
