But I do think he struck out these brothers in addition to the ones you've listed: Tony and Chris Gwynn, Eddie and Rich Murray, Cal Jr. and Billy Ripken, Graig and Jim Nettles. Pretty crazy stuff.

Nolan Ryan faced Tommie Aaron 3 times and did not strike him out. Aaron flew out to CF, RF, and sac bunted in his 3 PAs.
Nolan Ryan never faced Ken Boyer. Though they did appear in the same game twice. Boyer pinch hit late in both games but faced RP Al Jackson and did not strike out in either game.
