"Nolan Ryan's 5,000th Career Strikeout - 8/22/1989"

I sent a request to Eric Nadel asking him to write his call of Nolan Ryan's 5,000th career strikeout and this is what I received:




“The third full count in a row for Ryan. Here's the payoff pitch. He struck him out swinging! Strikeout number 5,000 is history for Nolan Ryan! Kreuter brings the baseball to the mound and the Rangers converge from all over the field. The infielders and outfielders are surrounding Nolan Ryan on the mound!”
