<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samclemens3991, post: 25834141, member: 82181&quot;]Very nice.&nbsp; I have long contended that Nolan may have been the best athlete America has ever seen.&nbsp; I am a Twins fan but when we would play Texas we would change our line up and use substitute starting pitchers because we didn&#039;t want to expose our best players to that Texas heat.&nbsp; He made half of all his starts in those conditions.</p><p>One other thing.&nbsp; When Nolan was 58 they had him throw out the first pitch for a game.&nbsp; He threw a 98 mile an hour fast ball.&nbsp; At the end of the game the announcer pointed out that the ball Nolan threw out for first pitch was 2 miles an hour faster than any pitch thrown by any pitcher in the game that day.&nbsp; LOL.&nbsp; </p><p>I have never collected baseball cards but if I did i would start with that one.&nbsp; James[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
