I'm assuming you are asking if it is still a perfect game. No, it is not.
The current MLB definition of a perfect game is "Since 1991, a perfect game has been defined by Major League Baseball as a game in which a pitcher pitches a complete game victory that lasts a minimum of nine innings and in which no opposition player reaches first base. Thus, the pitcher cannot allow any hits, walks, hit batsmen, or any opposing player to reach base safely for any other reason—in short, "27 up, 27 down." By definition, a perfect game must be both a no-hitter and a shutout. Since the pitcher cannot control whether or not his teammates commit any errors, the pitcher must be backed up by solid fielding to pitch a perfect game. An error that does not allow a baserunner, such as a misplayed foul ball, does not spoil a perfect game."

Is surgery to repair a torn labrum in the throwing shoulder of a pitcher even worth it? I'm 16 years old and could throw lower 70's

Cole Hammels (philly pitcher) pitched a bad game on Saturday. Later he said he pitched the game with a "dead arm", what does this mean?

You're reading Pitcher throws a perfectgame - strikes out all 27 men. The last batter swings and misses but the catcher misses the ball and the batter goes to first even after a called strike.
