RE: I GOT IT!!! Sweet Nolan Ryan!!
Not unless it is Ventura's blood lol, Ryan laid a beat down on him. No it was from a line grive back at him.

I'm well aware. I grew up as a Ryan fan. I saw the game with Ventura and went to the next game Ventura played in Pittsburgh. The whole stadium booed him each at bat. I vaguely recall Nolan with a bloody nose from the line drive, but not as much as hating Ventura.

That is the coolest card I have seen in a long time. Good luck on the grading of that beautiful piece of cardboard!

I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.

Nolan's nose wasn't bloody from the line-drive. It was his lower lip and chin area that was bloody.

That would be awesome!
