On this date in 1991, Nolan Ryan won his 308th career game, and Rich Gossage got his 308th career save ........ in the same game !!!  

It was also Ryan's 545th consecutive start without missing one due to injury. 

 

o

Wow, I had totally forgotten Gossage's year with Texas.

[scOtt]

Palmer says Santander "has got the better arm." That's and understatement!

 

Straw that breaks the camel's back for me. Firmly in Corn's done with DSJ camp.

And Ryan could defend his position so well too!

545 consecutive starts without missing one to injury.  That is crazy, Ryan was a freak of nature!

Twins just went ahead of the NYYs, 11-10, in the bottom of the eighth on Sano's two-run, 450-plus foot HR off Britton.

Oh, I believe it! It's just... like O's84 said, "Freak of nature." That's probably almost 15 straight years of NEVER missing a start.

DBacks50 Papa John's ad behind the plate. They have to score 50 runs for cheap pizza???

[scOtt]

Familiar sight. Davis staring off into space...

[SteveA]

MASN graphics now sugarcoating Davis.  The graphic said "0 for 3, strikeout in 6th".   He was 0 for 3 with all THREE strikeouts.

Make that 4 now.

Hicks just launched a 2 run homerun...after Rogers walked Tauchman of all people with two outs.

I like Davis because he reminds me of my brief inglorious little league career.
