Notes edit

  1. ^ In Japan, perfect games achieved by multiple pitchers are not considered as official perfect games. This game is considered by NPB standards as the last perfect game in NPB history, while 2007 Daisuke Yamai and Hitoki Iwase's perfect game [ja], which took place in Game 5 of the 2007 Japan Series, is considered as the most recent perfect game in NPB history by international standards.
