Yep - he's a badass...
His Ventura beatdown is awesome..
No kidding. I got to ask Pudge Rodriguez about that incident. As you know Pudge was catching that game. Pudge is a great guy and I was needling him about not helping Nolan out. He says " I wasn't really paying much attention to Ventura because he hesitated so long in running out there, i was sort of looking off in another direction. When I noticed he was charging the mound he was already way out there, then I started hearing what sounded like Nolan beating the hell out of a watermelon. It was Ventura's face". I laughed my butt off hearing him tell it.
