Facing Nolan

Director: Bradley Jackson
Release Date:

Nolan Ryan is emblazoned onto our sub-conscience. Images of him pitching with a jersey covered in blood, 7 no-hitters, the all-time strikeout record, and the iconic brawl where Nolan walloped Robin Ventura are cultural cornerstones. But Ryan’s career is a study in extremes. He holds the record for most walks and most wild pitches. With this in mind, where does Ryan fit in the game of baseball?

Don’t miss this!

We drove 2 hours to Arlington to watch this film Took 2 of our grown kids and 6 grandkids. Rangers won, Nolan and family were there. And the film brought so much emotion from the past that some of us had happy tears and the younger generation developed an interest to find out more about this great player, great man and great game.


Must See for Baseball Fans

Wonderful film about a living legend. This film does a great job of telling the story of his life on and off the field. He agreed to make the film for his family, but it really a gift to all of us.

Endearing Baseball Documentary

This documentary shows what makes a legend a legend. What makes a human a human, and what makes baseball records timeless. If you are too young to have watched Nolan Ryan pitch, watch this, if you were not, watch this. Even if you are not a fan of the game, I would expect it difficult to not appreciate Nolan’s accomplishments as an athlete, a husband, a father, and a person. The final 12 minutes got me emotional, Hands down the greatest power pitcher in history. The likes we will never see again. A must see for any baseball fan.
