Nolan Ryan played against both Mickey Mantle, who started his career in 1951, and Tim Wakefield, who retired in 2011.
Or look at it another way...
Nolan Ryan started his career only 5 years after Ted Williams' last year in the league, and Ted Williams entered the league in 1939, and Nolan Ryan retired only 2 years before Derek Jeter entered the league, and Jeter retired in 2014.
So Nolan Ryan was nearly a connection between two all-time greats, one of which started in 1939 and one who retired in 2014.
