Patrick Hoberg (born September 11, 1986) is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) umpire. Hoberg was the home plate umpire for Game 2 of the 2022 World Series, during which he did not make a single incorrect ball or strike call. This accomplishment, characterized as a "perfect game" for an umpire, was the first such game since MLB began tracking pitch locations using Statcast in 2015. Hoberg was widely regarded as the best ball-strike umpire in MLB.
