Nolan Ryan Delivering the Last Pitch Of His Fourth No-Hitter


Description

A slide of a black-and-white full-length photograph of Nolan Ryan throwing the last pitch in the fourth no-hitter of his career. Ryan wears a California Angels home uniform and strides toward home plate with his left leg extending forward. He holds a baseball behind him in his right hand as he looks over his left shoulder. The photograph is from the third base side of the field and shows the front of his uniform. The game was on June 1, 1975, before a crowd of 18,492 at Anaheim Stadium. The fans in the stands are visible in the background. The wire article on the left side of the photograph reads, "(ANS2) Anahaim, Cal., June 1 -- Ryan Works On Hist Last Oriole Batter -- Nolan Rya, California Angel pitcher, strides out to throw to Bobby Grich of the Baltimore Orioles, the last batter he faced in his no-hitter here Sunday at Anaheim Stadium. Grich went out for the last out of the game on the next pitch, a changeup.
