The 24th perfect game in MLB history

Technically it should be the 25th perfect game in MLB history.

Wow! If there’s ever an umpire’s decision that should be reversed after the game, that’s it.

If I were Commissioner, I would overturn that call.

I remember that one--bad call by the first base umpire.

There is another game sometimes listed, from the early 1900s. Babe Ruth was the starting pitcher and walked a batter, then was thrown out of the game (must have been for disputing the umpire's call that the pitch was a ball). The runner was thrown out trying to steal second and the pitcher who replaced Ruth was perfect for the rest of the game.

Jim Bunning pitched a perfect game in 1964--he was later a Republican senator from Kentucky.
