Box Score of Nolan Ryan No-Hitter (Seventh)

Arlington Appreciation Night was May 1, 1991. Nolan Ryan showed his appreciation when he tossed the seventh and final no-hitter of his Cooperstown career. A magic moment which occurred the same day that Rickey Henderson broke Lou Brock's all-time stolen base record and one that was special to Ryan because it was "at home" in Arlington.
