Only 4 of the league's 17 perfect games were tossed in full 9-inning games. Twenty-three no-hitters were combined—thrown by two or more pitchers on the same team.

Baserunner
In baseball, base running is the act of running from base to base, performed by members of the team at bat. Base running is a tactical part of the game with the goal of eventually reaching home base (home plate) to score a run. Batters strive to become base runners, and to enable existing base runners to move to a subsequent base or to score. In statistics, the number of baserunners (for example those allowed by a pitcher) is denoted by the abbreviation BR. Becoming a runner A batter becomes a base runner when one of the following happens: * He hits the baseball into fair territory and is not put out, * He hits into a fielder's choice, * The defensive team commits an error that allows him to reach base, * There is an uncaught third strike, * He receives a base on balls, * He is hit by a pitch, or * A fielder (typically, the catcher) interferes with him. The batter-runner The Official Baseball Rules uses the term batter-runner to identify the batter from the time he becomes a ...
