Ryan had thrown a fastball that fractured a hitter's arm. His next pitch broke the following batter's helmet. The third batter appealed to his coach for mercy, but eventually mustered the nerve to stand in and strike out on three pitches.

Major leaguers were often similarly humbled (or injured). One player was said to have incurred a concussion after being hit with a Ryan changeup, and even the great Reggie Jackson was quoted as saying he was "scared" to face Ryan.
