Nolan Ryan 7/30/90 300th win
I have a Nolan Ryan game used 300th win baseball with a Durwood Merrill LOA and a PSA LOA on the baseball and a pass ticket with 7/30/90 win THe Official date of his 300th win is 7/31/90 The Texas Landmarks & Legagies VOL.MMXVII,NO.211 paper has 7/30/90 , Goldin Auction has a 300th win poster in there auction they said was 7/30/90 ,so what I wanted to know is there a Official and Unofficial date of the win.

According to Retrosheet, who tend to know what they are talking about, the game was on July 31.
July 30 - Witt gets the win http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1...300MIL1990.htm July 31 - Ryan gets the win http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1...310MIL1990.htm Doug PS - Just a comment, my opinion could be completely worthless, but I hate season passes for every game of a season being marked as a specific game. I'm trying to come up with a witty analogy, but suffice to say I just think it's stupid. But, there are a lot of things about the people who get paid for their opinions that I find stupid.

I agree with your opinion on the season passes. It is true they were good for every game. But as someone who got to use a press pass in the 70's I have to say the pass itself was not a "ticket". We had to go to the ticket window or press window and they would still give us an actual ticket to get into the game. You still need an actual seat number so you still need a ticket. As far as I know you need to do this with every kind of pass. If you could actually get in with the pass where are you legally allowed to sit?

It was the 31st. I attended the game. You can find an authentic ticket fairly easily so not sure why you'd get one of those passes. I think the season passes are stupid too. BTW, it was a fantastic game and was well worth my trip to see it. Got lucky on that one.

Nolan Ryan 7/30/90 300th win
Durwood Merrill died on 1/11/2003 he has 13 years to correct this ball he has in his collection so that make me think that something must have happened for him to keep it in his collection!

Is it true that Nolan Ryan and Durwood Merrill were good friends?

Tacky yellow on baseball
On the Nolan Ryan 300th win baseball I took it out of the PSA holder wearing latex gloves the yellowing on the baseball has a tacky feel it this something that may have been used in a game, does anyone have any ideal what this could be?

The ball was probably used in a major league game, but NOT NECESSARILY Nolan Ryan's 300th win. In fact, I would say the odds are bad that it is from Nolan Ryan's 300th win. Steve

Nolan Ryan 7/30/90 300th win
Hi Steve I respect your opinion but what would make the odds bad this baseball came from one of Nolan Ryan best friends why would Nolan Ryan not speak up if it was not legitimate!

There is reasonable doubt about the ball being from his 300th win game, and there is no way to prove that it is. Doug |

Nolan Ryan 7/30/90 300th win
Hi Doug and Steve the big words here is PROBABLY and REASONABLE DOUBT no one has ever provided any proof to say it is not why is it so hard to say that Nolan Ryan could have gave his friend one of his 300th win game baseball.
