Viceroy's got the taste that's right.
Lindsey NelsonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We'll be going here to the bottom half of the seventh inning.
Lindsey NelsonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Through six innings, Jim Bunning not only has pitched a no-hitter, but he's pitched a perfect game to this point.

Harry CareySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Probably the most unbelievable feat of all.
Tyler MaunHOST
Gil, that is – I mean, that's – how weird for that to have happened to the same franchise multiple times.
Tyler MaunHOST
Speaking of rare things happening to the same franchise multiple times, we're going to get to that as a complement to the thing that we're going to talk about, which is the first minor league perfect game in nine years – Thomas Pannone throws a perfect game for the Nashville Sounds in Durham against the Bulls and did it all by his lonesome and had some really cool things to say after the game.
Tyler MaunHOST
First off, big congratulations to him.
Tyler MaunHOST
A journeyman, 32 years old, missed all of 2025 after suffering a flexor tendon tear during spring training.
Benjamin HillPANELIST
where his flexor tendon and his left forearm in spring training didn't pitch, you know, at age 31 as a journeyman for the entirety of, you know, his age 31 season comes back this year, plays one game for the pitches in one game for the Brewers, but he's just slogging away in the minor leagues as he's done since 2013.
Benjamin HillPANELIST
And it all comes together and he's, you know, he's a savvy veteran and he, yeah, he topped out at what was it like 91.6 miles an hour in the game and got the job done.
Benjamin HillPANELIST
As you mentioned, Tyler, this is kind of its own sort of crooked numbers tidbit from back then, but this is the first perfect game in the minor leagues, a nine-inning perfect game thrown by one person since 2017 when there were two within a three-day span of each other in 2017.
Benjamin HillPANELIST
There haven't been any since then, nine years later.
BrundoGUEST
golden.
Tropic AlHOST
I did trade him for another first baseman and a pitcher that threw like seven perfect games in a season.
Tropic AlHOST
I mean, granted, I was pitching.
speaker_2UNKNOWN
That kind of worked out.
BrundoGUEST
We all did back then.
BrundoGUEST
You guys were talking about all the records unable to be broken.
BrundoGUEST
Seven Perfect Games might have been on that.
Tropic AlHOST
Yeah, that was one of those.
Mike SteelyHOST
We got you covered right here on the Riff.
Mike SteelyHOST
Ladies and gentlemen, I want to make you aware of something right now that could be historically significant, and that is that Arberion T.J. Perry has a perfect game through two innings.
Mike SteelyHOST
This could be like Nolan Ryan's last no-hitter.
Mike SteelyHOST
Steely.
Parker ThuneHOST
Steely.
Parker ThuneHOST
When someone's throwing a perfect game, you don't talk about the fact that they're throwing a perfect game.
Parker ThuneHOST
This is just basic baseball etiquette right here.
Mike SteelyHOST
I know, but I want to put the pressure on him and see if he can handle it.
Ben LindberghHOST
All right, I did just wanna shout out Thomas Pannone for being perfect.
Ben LindberghHOST
He, he threw a perfect game in the minor leagues.
Ben LindberghHOST
It was the first individual solo nine-inning perfecto that we've seen in the minors since 2017, and he is a, a journeyman too.
Ben LindberghHOST
He's 32.
Ben LindberghHOST
He had one big league game with the Brewers this year and one big league game with the Brewers in 2023, and he had extended injuries in between, and, uh, he was with the Blue Jays before that.
Ben LindberghHOST
Career five and a half ERA, just about, in the big leagues, but he was perfect in Triple-A.
Ben LindberghHOST
And I was thinking of the, the Triple-A, the Nashville Sounds perfect game.
Ben LindberghHOST
Like, it's kind of an odd distinction, I guess.
Jeff BlairHOST
up.
Jeff BlairHOST
Anyhow, Rick Sweet is now Pannone's manager, and last night Pannone became the fifth individual to throw a nine-inning perfect game in International League history.
Jeff BlairHOST
The first player in the minors to toss an individual nine-inning perfect game since Dominic Maslin, April 25th, 2017.
Jeff BlairHOST
And if you know anything about the minors, I mean, there's so many things that go into minor league pitching that, you know, we need this guy to get this many innings and we need him to work in this pitch.
Kevin BarkerHOST
I mean, no guy that's been in the minor leagues for very long could care less about a no-hitter.
10 MINS LATER
Kevin BarkerHOST
Why not? I
Jeff BlairHOST
want to ask him about the no-hitter.
Kevin BarkerHOST
Perfect game.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Two outs, bases empty.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Pannone one out away from a perfect game.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The veteran lefty ready at the chest.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Here's the 3-1.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Bush hits a bouncing ball, slowly towards short.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Garcia gloves, grabs, guns, got him! It's a perfect game! Thomas Pannone has thrown a nine inning perfect game in Durham! The sounds come pouring out of the first base dugout.
Jeff HemSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They are mobbing him here in Durham.
Big Joe DubinHOST
That's how it sounded on 94.9 The Fan yesterday.
