What is the fewest number of pitches that a pitcher in a major league baseball game can throw and come away with a complete game?

(A real complete game, not shortened by rain or anything like that)

One. The pitcher is a relief pitcher coming out in the 9th inning with two outs. One pitch is made, the batter hits it and the ball is caught in the air for the last out.
