"The seventh no-hitter of the amazing career of Nolan Ryan may have been the best. It was certainly the most rewarding, according to Ryan, because it came at Arlington Stadium on fan appreciation night, and it afforded him the chance to give something special to the home fans." - Author Rich Westcott in No-Hitters (McFarland, 2000)

Fred Schwed, Jr., in How to Watch a Baseball Game (1957) wrote our favorite baseball box score quote, "The baseball box score is the pithiest form of written communication in America today. It is abbreviated history. It is two or three hours (the box score even gives that item to the minute) of complex activity, virtually inscribed on the head of a pin, yet no knowing reader suffers from eyestrain."
