Nice thanks for sharing.
I was surprised to hear the announcers saying he was on the verge of a perfect game. I thought back in those days, they were superstitious about mentioning a no hitter in progress? That’s what I’ve always heard anyway.
I have heard that too.
Maybe just the players aren’t supposed to say anything.
You're right, that is a no-no of the 1st order. I don't recall watching that game, I was in HS, but I was indeed a die hard Mets fan. Everyone loved Bunning that day!
That is a fact, baseball players in those days were superstitious then and probably still are today. There is a lot of luck involved in sports, their skill level improves their odds.
