Nolan Ryan had a historic season in 1973. Ryan broke the single season strikeout record by striking out 383 batters, a record that still stands today. 1973 was the first year of the designated hitter, making Ryan's strike out record that much more impressive. He also threw two no-hitters during the season. Ryan was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1999. On the front middle tail is the McAuliffe manufacturer’s tag. Attached are three tags that read size “44”, “1973”, and one with washing instructions. On the left sleeve is the California Angels team patch. Across the chest reads “Angels” in red on navy blue tackle twill with the Angels halo in gold tackle twill. Below is player number “30” in red on navy blue tackle twill. Across the back reads player name, “RYAN” and below is the player number “30”, both are done in red on navy blue tackle twill. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use with baseball related staining.
