Randy Johnson's Perfect Game
Pitcher Randy Johnson led the Arizona Diamondbacks to victory after pitching a perfect game. With 117 pitches, he retired all 27 batters he faced, and at 40 years old, he became the oldest pitcher to throw a perfect game. Only 17 pitchers have ever achieved the feat. NPR's Melissa Block talks with Jim Kaat about older, 40-something ballplayers and their seeming eternal athleticism in the major leagues.
