'Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated; it satisfies the soul and frustrates the intellect. It is at the same time rewarding and maddening and is without a doubt the greatest game mankind has ever invented' -

19-year-old Sandy Koufax. He signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1954 as a "bonus baby". Despite the raw talent, he struggled with control early in his career. From 1955-1960, Koufax went just 36-40 with a 4.10 ERA, walking 405 batters in 691⅔ innings. He was nearly ready to quit baseball, but stuck with it to become an eventual hall of famer.

It's estimated that during his career Arnold Palmer signed his name over 1.1 million times and he took great pride in always making sure he signed his name in full and that it was perfectly legible.
Try telling that to the quick-fire scribblers of today!

The Dodgers recreated the message on the scoreboard at Dodger Stadium 50 years ago when Rick Monday saved the American flag from being burned by protesters.

"The Los Angeles Dodgers, who were the joke of the baseball world in 1962 because they blew the National League title, are the World Champions of 1963 because they blew the New York Yankees off the field in four straight games.
An autopsy showed that the Yankees passed away due to an overdose of Dodger pitching."
Future Dodgers public relations executive, then Dodgers GM Fred Claire was a reporter in 1963, and wrote this in the Pomona Progress-Bulletin.
"I want to go on and on, like Warren Spahn.
My goal is to become the biggest winner in history.
I’ll probably have to pitch 30 years to do it, but right now I feel that I can go on forever. The day you can’t do the job, the hitters will let you know before anyone else."
27 year old Sandy Koufax Won Games 1 and 4, pitching complete games in both, allowing three total runs with 23 strikeouts in his 18 innings to win 1963 World Series MVP.
"The game has a cleanness.
If you do a good job, the numbers say so.
You don't have to ask anyone or play politics.
You don't have to wait for the reviews."
Sandy Koufax.
"A foul ball off Koufax was a moral victory."
Don Sutton.
From 1963 to 1966, Sandy Koufax went 97-27 with a 1.86 ERA.
In 1,192 innings pitched, he struck out 1,228 batters.
He threw 89 complete games and 31 shutouts.
Sandy Koufax also threw FOUR no hitters, the last one being a perfect game.
The youngest player ever inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Three time Cy Young Award winner....unanimously each time.
