The 24 pitchers who have thrown an MLB perfect game

Eleven years after the most recent perfect game, New York Yankees starter Domingo German became the 24th pitcher in league history to throw a perfect game in an 11-0 victory over the Oakland Athletics. The 30-year-old struck out nine batters.

King Felix was perfect just a little over two months after Matt Cain threw a perfect game for the Giants. The Seattle ace fanned 12 Rays batters in a 1-0 win.

Cain absolutely dominated the Astros, as the Giants won 10-0. He fanned 14 Astros hitters, tying Sandy Koufax's record for the most in a perfect game.

Humber threw an improbable perfect game in his first career complete game. The right-hander fanned nine Mariners in a 4-0 win for the White Sox.

Just 20 days after Dallas Braden threw a perfect game for the A's, Halladay was able to do the same. The Phillies ace struck out 11 Marlins in the 1-0 win and went on to win the Cy Young Award.

Braden embraced his grandmother on Mother's Day after throwing a perfect game against the Tampa Bay Rays. He recorded all 27 outs with six strikeouts in Oakland's 4-0 win.

Buehrle didn't seem like a great candidate to throw a perfect game given his lack of strikeouts, but he was perfect against the Rays. The White Sox lefty fanned six batters in a 5-0 win.

Johnson became both the oldest and tallest pitcher to throw a perfect game, as the 6-10, 40-year-old lefty dominated the Braves in a 2-0 win. He finished the game with 13 strikeouts, though that was almost routine for the Hall of Fame flamethrower.

Just a little over a year after teammate David Wells threw a perfect game, Cone matched the historic feat. The right-hander fanned 10 batters and finished the game economically on only 88 pitches, as New York defeated the Expos 6-0.

Wells claims to have been hungover from a long night of drinking when he threw a perfect game for the Yankees against the Twins at Yankee Stadium. The lefty struck out 11 batters and finished the game in 120 pitches.

Exactly three years after Dennis Martinez threw a perfect game, Rogers was perfect against the Angels in a 4-0 victory. The Rangers lefty fanned eight batters and was saved by a diving catch by Rusty Greer in the ninth inning.

Martinez proved that age is just a number, throwing a perfect game at age 36. He became the first pitcher born outside the United States to throw a perfect game, finishing with five strikeouts as the Expos beat the Dodgers 2-0.

Browning wrapped up a perfect game against the Dodgers in less than two hours, as the Reds won 1-0. The game started more than two hours late following a rain delay, and Browning finished with seven strikeouts.

Witt and the Angels finished the 1984 season in style, recording a perfect game against the Texas Rangers on the final game of the season. Witt struck out 10 batters, beating Charlie Hough, who also threw a complete game for the Rangers.

Barker was the first pitcher to throw a perfect game against an opposing team that was using the designated hitter. His Cleveland Indians defeated Toronto 3-0, and Barker finished with 11 strikeouts.

Hunter was perfect against the Twins in a 4-0 A's victory, but he also performed well as a hitter during the game. He finished 3-for-4 with a double and three RBI, in addition to his perfect game with 11 strikeouts.

Koufax tore through the Cubs in a 1-0 victory at Dodger Stadium that lasted just one hour, 43 minutes. Cubs starter Bob Hendley allowed only one hit in the game and allowed an unearned run.

Bunning was perfect against a very bad Mets team that eventually lost 109 games, but that hardly makes the unique feat less impressive.The Hall of Famer fanned 10 batters, as the Phillies won 6-0 on Father's Day.

Thirty-four years after the last perfect game, Larsen had arguably the greatest pitching performance in baseball history given the stakes. Facing the Brooklyn Dodgers with the World Series tied 2-2, Larsen was perfect in a 2-0 Yankees win. The Yankees would go on to win the World Series in seven games.

Robertson made history in only his fourth major league start, as the White Sox beat the Tigers 2-0. He struck out six in the game.

With the Cleveland Naps in a heated pennant race, Joss came up big with a perfect game in the team's 1-0 win over the White Sox. He fanned three batters, while his counterpart, Ed Walsh, only allowed one unearned run and struck out 15 in eight innings.

One of the greatest pitchers in baseball history, Young was perfect against the Philadelphia Athletics in a 3-0 win. He struck out eight batters as the Boston Americans won 3-0.

Just five days after the first perfect game, Ward accomplished history himself. His Providence Grays defeated the Buffalo Bisons 2-0, and Ward struck out two batters.
