On October 8, 1956, in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series, pitcherDon Larsen of the New York Yankees threw a perfect game against the Brooklyn Dodgers at Yankee Stadium. It was the only no-hitter in World Series history until the Houston Astros pitching staff of Cristian Javier, Bryan Abreu, Rafael Montero and Ryan Pressly threw a combined no-hitter in Game 4 of the 2022 World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies. It remains the only perfect game in the history of the World Series.
