Cooperstown Collection

Nolan Ryan: From Alvin to Cooperstown is a collection of articles and rare photographs from the archives of The Sporting News. With Ryan's 1999 induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame, this book is the first to capture his entire career in pictures with the New York Mets ('66-71), California Angels ('72-79), Houston Astros ('80-88), and Texas Rangers ('89-93). Baseball's all-time strikeout leader and the author of seven no-hitters, Nolan Ryan is in many ways the most remarkable pitcher ever to play the game.

Few people know that seven native-born Marylanders have earned a place in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. This collective biography chronicles the lives and careers of the state's baseball elite in words and period photographs. These Maryland players represent baseball's greatest players, beginning with Baltimore's own Babe Ruth, who began his legendary major league career with the Boston Red Sox in 1914. The Babe's dynamic personality, coupled with his record of 714 home runs, made him the game's most famous player. The other Marylanders who hold baseball's greatest honor are Vic Willis, who pitched the dreaded "grapevine sinker"; famed hitter "Home Run" Baker, whose nickname tells his story; "Judy" Johnson, star third baseman from the Negro Leagues; Lefty Grove, the southpaw who could "throw a lamb chop past a wolf"; Jimmie Foxx, powerful slugger and three-time MVP; and Al Kaline, outstanding outfielder and batting champion.
