{{Non-free use rationale

| Description = Famous image of New York Yankees catcher Yogi Berra leaping into the arms of pitcher Don Larsen after the completion of Larsen's perfect game in game 5 of the 1956 World Series, October 8, 1956

| Source = Wide World Photos (copyright holder). Immediate source: Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division

| Article = Perfect game (baseball)

| Portion = The entirety of the image is used for historical accuracy.

| Low resolution = Yes, the image is of low resolution, unsuitable for high-quality copies, and would not decrease commercial demand for the original.

| Other information = The image is not used or sold for profit. It is used in the context of an educational discussion regarding the image and the event it depicts.

| Purpose = To illustrate the exceptional significance of the perfect game within the context of Major League Baseball and the unique, unsurpassable event which produced this specific image. The image is used for explication of sourced critical commentary on the event depicted and the image itself. The photograph is famous, an "everlasting image" (Source: Bill Madden, "Yogi Berra's Favorite Stadium Moment: Don Larsen's Perfect Game" [http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yankees/2008/09/11/2008-09-11_yogi_berras_favorite_stadium_moment_don_-2.html Daily News, September 12 2008]). Describing the image, sports historian Jayson Stark has written, "Most people, even most baseball fans...can see Yogi Berra jumping into [Larsen's] arms in the grainy black-and-white replay machine in their heads" (Source: Bill Chuck, "Larsen's Perfect Game Remains Gold Standard" [http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/15149004// NBC Sports, October 6, 2006]). Explicating how the photograph is the image definitively associated with the notion of the perfect game, Craig This writes, "Most of us, if not all of us, have seen the photograph of Yankees catcher Yogi Berra leaping into the arms of pitcher Don Larsen following Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series" (Source: Craig This, "'The Curious Case of Sidd Finch' and For Love of the Game: The Perfect Game as Mythical Literature", in The Cooperstown Symposium on Baseball and American Culture, 2001, ed. William M. Simons (McFarland: 2002), p. 167. {{ISBN|0786413573}}). The use of the image in this location and context makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, specifically the importance of the perfect game and the unmatched importance of this perfect game that could not practically be conveyed by words alone.

| Replaceability = This is the very photograph that is discussed in the article. In the 53-plus years since its creation, no comparable free image has surfaced that would be a valid replacement.
