On this day in 1990, the amazing Nolan Ryan pitched his 6th no-hitter in Oakland.
Ryan pitched a no-hitter for 3 different teams (Angels, Astros & Rangers) and 3 different decades.
On a personal note, I did not watch the whole game. It was a Pacific time game, or it started in Texas at 9 pm. I fell asleep after 3 or 4 innings and did not watch it.

I heard about it the next morning when when the alarm went off at 6 am. It was one of the leading stories on the radio!
Ryan flirted with no-hitters a couple of times in 1989, or his first year in Texas. In fact, I was at one of those games when he took a perfect game into the 9th, or 25 outs! Then he gave up a single!
The amazing Mr. Ryan!
