It's Father's Day, and Jim Bunning steps up on the mound to start the first game of a double-header for the Phillies and the Mets in Shea Stadium. He's going to throw 89 pitches that will burn his name into the history books.

He'll be number seven in an incredibly exclusive club that has only 23 members. He'll be the first National League pitcher to join the club since 1880.

This is Jim Bunning's Perfect Game.

Matt Murphy, Lindsay Nelson, and Ralph Cainer on Mets Radio call the game.
