I walked into a tiny bar with a buddy in Wickenburg, AZ and Randy was in the 3rd inning. We ate and had a couple drinks and it was the 6th inning and Randy was still perfect. I told my buddy we weren't going anywhere. As we watched I realized that when Randy was pitching I had been standing beside our tall bar table and I was holding the table with my left thumb and forefinger. So any time Randy came back out to the mound I got in position as well. I hope Randy appreciates how much I helped him get that perfect game that day.

It’s crazy how rare perfect games are, yet there were 2 within 3 weeks of eachother in 2010 and three in the 2012 season. They seemed so common for a short period, and then, they vanished. None in the last decade since Felix did it. And as a Mariners fan who grew up with the King as his favorite player, I can say I am proud for him to have held the distinction as the last Perfect pitcher for this long. One of the few Mariners brags I can make.

This just goes to show how many things have to go right for someone to throw a perfect game. These guys aren't all HOF pitchers. Couple of 'em I've never even heard of except for this. Think of how many great, great pitchers never threw a perfect game. Nolan Ryan. 7 no-hitters, none perfect. Obviously it's a major achievement for a pitcher, but it really has to be the whole team firing on all cylinders. No errors, no fielder's choice, nothing. It's a defensive win for the whole team, really. Not to mention luck. I mean, no bloop singles, no one goes yard, no little roller that the third baseman can't reach in time.... It's pretty remarkable, and it isn't just the greatest pitchers in the game that get one. I kinda like that.

Some things I noticed: Rays had 3 Perfect Games thrown against them in a span of 4 seasons. Angels and Rangers threw perfectos at each other 10 years apart, both in Texas. 1984 in old Arlington Stadium (Mike Witt) and 1994 in Rangers Ballpark (Kenny Rogers), the inaugural season for that field. Rogers' Perfect game featured a game-saving diving catch in center field by Rusty Greer in the top of the 9th.

Ooh looking back on it that check swing call on Ryan for Humber’s game is really rough. Definitely one of those moments where the umpire isn’t going to call it any other way, even though it’s objectively the incorrect call.

Koufax's game was interesting for two other reasons. His opponent also was perfect through 4 innings, allowed an unearned run in the 5th, and gave up his only hit in the 7th inning, and Harvey Kuenn was the final out in a Koufax no-hitter for the second time in his career.

Felix merely knew it took that type of performance to get winning decisions playing for the Mariners

I had met Don Larsen when I worked for the post office in Hayden Idaho back in 2012. He would come in to send off packages. He was a grumpy old man but it was pretty cool to have helped him.

Here were the 7 that don't have any footage whatsoever: 1) Lee Richmond, 1880 2) John Montgomery Ward, 1880 3) Cy Young, 1905 4) Addie Joss, 1908 5) Charlie Robertson, 1922 6) Sandy Koufax, 1965(Only the radio call exists for that game) 7) Jim "Catfish" Hunter, 1968(Similar with Koufax, only the radio call exists)

You'd think that with all the video cameras available back in 1880 somebody would have thought to record it.

You forget Galarraga. Bro has the most perfect game ever pitched. No one else has ever thrown a 28 out perfect game before.

Dallas Braden… on Mother’s Day in front of his grandma at the good old Coliseum.. absolutely legendary and heart warming moment 💛💚

Harvey Haddix pitched a 12 inning perfect game for the Pirates and lost. I remember it as a kid. Had his baseball card.

Incredible pictures..... thank you for this video! I love baseball... and get goosebumps when I see this! Greetings from Germany

Who's here after Domingo Germán 2023?!

You're missing Steve Nebraska, who quite literally threw a perfect game and in the World Series, no less! 81 pitches, 81 strikes. Perfection.

@@kdwaynec The fact this happens in the city championship game, against Andrew Johnson High and included the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba "Spare Tire" Dixon...makes it really hard to beat as #1 all time.

105 mph change up.

Still crack a smile whenever I see the clip of Hammock jumping for joy as he runs towards Johnson.

You gotta hand it to these guys. Nowadays, it would take at least four pitchers to complete a perfect game.

You’re going to have to add a new one!

And now we can add Domingo Germán to this list.

Out of all of them, Randy Johnson was my favorite. The only way The Big Unit could finish his perfect game was with a strikeout. It was the perfect ending for him. Complete for his style and mystique.

My apologies if this has been brought up already, but David Wells and Don Larsen, two Yankee pitchers who threw perfect games, went to the same high school years apart: Point Loma High in San Diego.

Why you do Mike Witt dirty & have it printed as "Mile Witt?" 😩😩😂

Catcher Ron Hassey is the only Catcher in history to catch two Perfect games ..... Len Barker and Dennis Martinez

It's crazy what a good broadcast will do. When they call it well I get SO emotional. Announcers really are amazing at times. Man, imagine pitching a perfect game in the World Series. That's gotta be the best feeling in the world.

The majority of these were done by the visiting team..Always better when your home crowd can take this amazing history making moments..Still pretty cool..The fans still showed love!!

you really have to show love. It's much easier to win the lottery than to watch a perfect game in person

June 28, 2023: Domingo German joins this list!

Saved the best for last. Still remember that day like it was yesterday. Miss you Felix!!!

I'm a lifelong Mets fan, but I was lucky enough to be at the Ballpark in Arlington, in 1994, for Kenny Rogers perfect game. It was the most remarkable night I've had at a baseball game. Incredible drama and atmosphere.

thank you for compiling this, very interesting and inspiring! love these moments

I don’t care. The best nickname in history is “the big unit”

Cool. But I want to see all the perfect games spoiled in the 9th inning... with facial expressions.

time to update.... : )

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.

The fact that made David Cone's perfect game extra special: he pitched it on Don Larson Day at Yankee Stadium. Don Larson threw the ceremonial first pitch out to Yogi Berra during the pre-game to recreate the 1956 game, then David Cone went out and threw a perfect game.

Here after Domingo German just threw one

Looks like your going to need to add one more after tonite.

Every single Perfect Game should be a Hall of Fame moment by definition.

That batter gifted Phillip Humber the perfect game haha

Drew Rasmussen was just 3 outs away today so amazing

Browning was a good pitcher.

Mad respect to a bunch of the hitters for not running full speed at the end so they could keep the perfect game I saw 3 or 4 where if they ran full speed they probably would have been safe by a good chunk

Still amazed that David Wells was still drunk when he pitched that perfect game.

“El Presidente… el perfection.”

Wow! "Mile Witt" threw a perfect game for the Angels too?? I knew Mike Witt threw one around the same time!

Multiple perfect games in a season are incredible. Some decades have no perfect games: 1890s 1910s 30s 40s and 70s. I wonder if the 2020s will have any.

You know what’s funny, Tom Seavers almost perfect game 1969 against the Cubs in the heat of their pennant race is remembered more than most perfect games!

That has to be an awesome feeling. Shame Galarraga isn't up there. Got a new subscriber. Was fun to watch. Great video
