Given the Big Unit's feat, thought this question fit well today:
Which NES RBI pitcher threw a perfect game?
(Someone should know without having to surf it up)
Extra credit:
Name the 3 Arcade RBI pitchers that threw perfect games?
nes: mike witt
arcade: whitey ford, sandy koufax, ?

Now hang on, Witt didn't pitch the entire game...as I recall, it was a 3 pitcher effort...

No, Witt is correct. JoeDirt I think you are thinking of a different game, maybe a combine No-Hitter for the Angels.
ah yes...I guess I was wrong--there's a first for everything. ;)
Witt was a part of a combined no hitter--either with the Angels v. NYY or vice versa.
Notice in the boxscore that the only run of Witt's PG was driven in by none other than Reggie Jackson.
I wonder if I have a baseball card commemorating that combined no-hitter... was it in 1990?
1990 sounds about right...I seem to recall that it was extremely early in the season--that's why Witt had to come out.
Who are the three arcade pitchers to throw a perfecto? I'm pretty positive Whitey never did it. I'm pretty positive Koufax did. Is Bunning on there? How about Cy Young?
You got 2 of 3 Mcclane
It's
Koufax, Cy Young, and Catfish Hunter
