Pitching video: What can you learn from Nolan Ryan?

You can learn a lot about pitching from watching big leaguers. If I had to pick one big league pitcher to emulate on the mound for his mentality, pitching mechanics, and pitch selection, I'd go with Nolan Ryan. What about you?

Here's video footage of Nolan Ryan pitching a no-hitter for the Texas Rangers. Check out his pitching mechanics. Check out his curveball. From a mechanical standpoint, his fastball and curveball looked exactly the same. That's one of the reasons why he was so good. Enjoy.
