On too many occasions this month, the Yankees have needed their pitchers to be nearly perfect in order to have a chance to win because of their scuffling offense.

For the first time in weeks, that was not the case Wednesday night, but Domingo German achieved perfection anyway.

German threw the fourth perfect game in Yankees history and the 24th  in MLB history, dazzling as he retired all 27 batters he faced on 99 pitches with nine strikeouts in an 11-0 win over the Athletics that 12,479 witnessed at Oakland Coliseum.

German’s final offering in a six-pitch ninth inning was grounded to third base, where Josh Donaldson fielded it cleanly and fired to first before the Yankees mobbed German near the mound.

“When you think about the history of baseball and how many pitchers have done it, to be part of history now, it’s exciting,” German said through an interpreter.

On a night when he had his curveball working from the start — he went on to throw it 51 times and induced 12 whiffs — German was untouchable while working with catcher Kyle Higashioka. 

Just when Mets’ fans thought it couldn’t get any worse, the Mets followed up a miserable road trip with a loss at home to the Brewers 2-1 on Monday night.

Even having Justin Verlander on the mound couldn’t fix what’s ailing the Mets, as they dropped their fifth in the last six games — and 16th of 21 — as the season that began with enormous expectations continues to spiral out of control.

They are now a season-worst eight games under .500 (35-43), a season-worst 16 games back of the NL East-leading Braves and 8 games behind in the wild-card race.

“I don’t think anyone saw this coming,’’ Verlander said, seemingly stunned at what he’s become a part of.

On Monday, Verlander pitched five scoreless innings, but needed 100 pitches to get there and had to be replaced to start the sixth.

Drew Smith, fresh off a 10-game ban for violating the league’s sticky substance policy, entered with a one-run lead and gave up a two-run homer to Joey Wiemer to put Milwaukee ahead.

But as Buck Showalter said before the game, it’s impossible to point the finger at one area in which the team is lacking.

This time, the offense came up small against right-hander Colin Rea, scoring just one run — which was aided by an error by Milwaukee catcher  William Contreras.
