Description

[@josephr.costella3940]

Nolan Ryan & Jim Kaat, when starting pitching was about being a true horse, not pitching 3 innings & going to the bullpen like the game is now!

[@mickstan24]

Love the Chisox red uni's.

[@kmac1766]

Harry brought an enthusiasm and excitement that brought our great game to life. RIP Harry

[@anonnumber1]

Love those Sox uniforms...

[@glenngrinter6818]

Jim Kaat was at Manchester VT community library 10/20/22 & talked about this game & how Dick Allen hustled to first.

[@philiptucci2458]

I remember this game very well, Nolan was phenomenal, the greatest power pitcher in the history of baseball

[@stankatic8182]

The great Dick Allen who belongs in the Hall of Fame. RIP one of the greats .

As a life long Sox fan I have fond memories rooting for this team. These are best Sox uniforms ever. This video also reminds me of the weird, unique field configuration for Comiskey in those days. Artificial turf infield with natural grass outfield. Has anyone else ever did that? And I always think of Haray Caray more as a Sox announcer than a Cubs announcer or Cardinals for that matter.

Great to be a kid than. The games were cheap , so was the food , games were free on tv and your parents paid for everything.

[@termtech1]

Now I fully understand how Ryans win percentage was so awful! Games like thru 26 years on shitty teams the guy would've won 370 games easy

"Memories galore watching this. I have been a Sox fan for 62 years, I am 72. I loved "Ritchie "Dick" Allen, he is my all time favorite Sox player. He literally saved the Sox from moving from Chicago with his MVP year in 72. The Sox were not drawing at all and he brought people back. He was one of the few players, maybe the only player for the Sox that no matter what the score, no one would leave the game until he had his last at bat. I saw him hit a home run that went to straight center field over second base at about 20 feet high and when it went into the center field bleachers it was still going up. I have so many stories about the Sox that I could tell that are truly unique but if I told them all it would look like a book".

Even though this was heartbreaking to watch... I love how even though there's a Mound visit... there was never even a question of coming to get him

[@BaddogSports]

Nolan Ryan threw a ridiculous 7 no hitters. But he also threw 12 one hitters. Just flat out DOMINANT!

[@timothymaynard5122]

"Holy cow! What smoke!". Harry. 102 mph pitch that cost Nolan a no hitter!

[@GetBenched2010]

Harry at his craziest and its glorious!

[@andykluth5746]

I was 9 years old and at this game and everybody wanted to see a no hitter, I remember cheering for Dick Allens hit not knowing any better.

[@gnagh]

I remember watching this game like it was yesterday. I even remembered Sharp's winning single to the right side! Ryan dominated until the 9th. Good to hear Harry in his prime again, including a Falstaff to ya!🍻

[@Erborne1979]

Nolan Ryan's career in a nutshell: his determination, his competitiveness, his defense, his offense, his teams..... imagine him on the Orioles or the Yankees during the 70s that's all I'm saying

[@adriangarza8849]

Wow. Just amazing how hard he threw. Wow Ryan is the greatest Period 👍

[@billplate3125]

I was at this game Frank Robinson hit a home run to give the Angels the 1-0 lead we had free tickets from school perfect attendance my buddies and i went down by first base for the 9th inning I was 15 my mom drove us all probably 5 or 6 guys Great memory
