Notable facts about him presented on his website’s biography (bunning.senate.gov) reveal something interesting by around the third paragraph. Bunning is, if you didn’t know, a Hall of Fame hurler, “the second pitcher in history…to record 1,000 strikeouts and 100 wins in both the National and American Leagues.” When he retired, he was also second to Walter Johnson on the all-time strikeout list...
