Ryan Stryker Jr. Inducted into Hall Of Fame Wednesday, January 4th , 2073 "My dreams never took me to the Hall of Fame," said pitching ace Ryan Stryker Jr., the newest member of the Pro Baseball Experience Hall of Fame, at his induction ceremony. "Like most of these Hall of Fame members -- probably all of them -- I didn't play the game to get here. I played the game because I loved it. That being said, it's the Hall of Fame. It's that magical place, it's that place that transcends time. And now I am a part of it. And so proud to be here." In his outstanding career Stryker Jr. crafted a 145-83 record with a 3.35 ERA. Opposing clubs batted .220 against him and he rung up 2237 strikeouts in 2024.1 innings. He was 38 when he retired from baseball. One of his managers commented on what made Stryker Jr. such a formidable pitcher. "I don't care what the situation was, how high the stakes were -- the bases could be loaded and the pennant riding on every pitch -- it never bothered Ryan. He pitched his game. Cool and crafty with nerves of steel." |
