Phillies fans are waking up Sunday learning that legend Jim Bunning suffered a stroke last week at his home in Kentucky. The former pitcher was transported to the hospital late Tuesday evening, and placed in the intensive care unit.
According to Philly.com writer Matt Breen Bunning was moved from ICU to the transitional care unit on Thursday, and is now resting at home.
“Thanks to the attention of the doctors and nurses at St. Elizabeth, he has been provided skilled care that is leading him on the road to recovery,” Bunning’s family said in a statement.
