Randy Johnson Pitches Perfect Game. Box and recap. Johnson became the oldest pitcher to throw a perfect game. He's 40; Cy Young was 37 when he did it in 1904. Johnson is the 6th pitcher to throw a no-hitter in both leagues; he no-hit the Tigers while with Seattle on June 2, 1990. He also threw the first no-hitter in Seattle history and now he's thrown the first one for Arizona.
Johnson went to three balls on only one hitter -- Johnny Estrada in the second inning. Estrada fouled off three straight 3-2 pitches before going down swinging, one of 13 Atlanta strikeouts. ... It was the 17th perfect game and the 7th in the National League.
