1974 was weird. There was Nixon resigning. The Vietnam War raged on. The heiress Patty Hearst was kidnapped. Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth's all-time homerun record. And Nolan Ryan kept on throwing harder than hell, almost scoring a second consecutive season with two no-hitters.

Join old curmudgeonly Grandpa Twins on the back porch, and read Twins Killers! Nolan Ryan No-Hits The Twins, Sept. 28, 1974. Maybe he'll give you a quarter for your trouble...or some old candy from the drawer.
