Jim Bunning (1931–2017) was a force in both baseball and politics. Born in Southgate, Kentucky, he earned a place in the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame before serving 12 years in the U.S. House and two terms in the U.S. Senate. One of just 23 pitchers in MLB history to throw a perfect game, Bunning brought the same tenacity and fierce independence to Capitol Hill. In 2007, he helped establish September as National Bourbon Heritage Month, solidifying his legacy as a champion of Kentucky’s native spirit. A staunch defender of fiscal discipline, veterans and Kentucky values, Bunning never backed down from a challenge. With the Jim Bunning Release, we honor a true Kentucky original. Raise a glass to #14 on the mound — and #1 in our hearts.
