Rawlings Official Major League Baseball. Hand-signed in blue ink pen by (16) Perfect Game Pitchers including David Cone, David Wells, Don Larsen, Mike Witt, Matt Cain, Dallas Braden, Felix Hernandez, Dennis Martinez, Tom Browning, Len Barker, Philip Humber, Roy Halladay, Mark Buehrle, Sandy Koufax, Jim Bunning, and Randy Johnson. All (16) pitchers also inscribed their perfect game date.

Over the 140 years of Major League Baseball history, and over 210,000 games played, there have been 23 official perfect games by the current definition. No pitcher has ever thrown more than one. The perfect game thrown by Don Larsen in game 5 of the 1956 World Series is the only postseason perfect game in major league history and one of only two postseason no-hitters, the other being a no-hitter thrown by Roy Halladay in game 1 of the 2010 National League Division Series against the Cincinnati Reds. The first two major league perfect games, and the only two of the premodern era, were thrown in 1880, five days apart. The most recent perfect game was thrown on August 15, 2012 by Félix Hernández of the Seattle Mariners. There were three perfect games in 2012, with no other year ever having more than two thrown. By contrast, there have been spans of 23 and 33 consecutive seasons in which not a single perfect game was thrown.

The ball includes an official James Spence Authentication (JSA) hologram and matching LOA for authenticity purposes.
