Yep.
It's interesting. Unless there are 27 strikeouts, the fielders contribute to a perfect game. F3 fielded a ball which properly should have been handled by F4, and turned a routine play into a bang-bang play.

Competent defensive play would have put the runner out by a couple of steps, and there would have been no opportunity for a missed call.
