Nolan Ryan autographed California Angels baseball jersey (includes JSA certification). Ryan, nicknamed the "Ryan Express", played 27 years in the major leagues for four teams (Mets, Angels, Astros, and Rangers). This is a Russell Athletics Size 40 jersey - from their Authentic Diamond Collection! He autographed the front of the Angels jersey (large signature, somewhat faded - autograph appearance looks to be a 6 on a scale to 10). The back of the jersey is blank (no name or number). The jersey overall presents well, with some light toning/marks on the front right. He was inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame in 1999. Ryan often pitched near or above 100 miles per hour, even into his 40s! He was an 8-time All Star and his 5,714 career strikeouts rank first in MLB baseball history (839 strikeouts above Randy Johnson who is second). Ryan is also the all-time leader in no-hitters with 7, three more than any other pitcher. He appeared in baseball games in 4 different decades and has the most one-hitters (12 - tied with Bob Feller) in baseball history, and had 18 two-hitters. He also struck out seven pairs of fathers and sons.
