Nolan Ryan took the mound for the Texas Rangers in the first of a 3-game series with the Brewers. And although the Brewers would sweep, the 43-year old Ryan went 7 2/3 innings, throwing 146 pitches (including 103 strikes) to record his 300th win.

I’m pretty sure that no other pitcher has reached the 300 win milestone since. I’m checking the win record of every MLB pitcher since that time, alphabetically. I am through the “B’s” and haven’t found one

You cannot lose games in the NFL and still win.

That pitch the other day (which was a ball but still impressive lol) made me look up his page - CanHartlebHireSnider July 28, 2026, 13:38:01
- It was indeed a ball but still incredibly impressive. I'm surprised that motion didn't - Warrin'_Illini July 28, 2026, 13:42:23
just think how long Tommy John would have pitched if Tommy John surgery had been invented back then* - bbonb July 28, 2026, 13:33:36
- 12 wins short of 300. I think you could comfortably pencil him in for about 550 or so. - Warrin'_Illini July 28, 2026, 13:39:58
