  • Disney said: Few pitchers dominated as Koufax did. He was a pleasure to watch, unless he was going against your team. 2:50PM 01/20/12
  • Cassandra Johnson said: My dad took me to my first baseball game when I was 8 yrs. old and I got to watch Sandy Koufax pitch....(in fact I caught a foul tip that was pitched by him & he signed it for me). Growing up Sandy was my idol. I wanted to be a pitcher just like him when I grew up....(even though I had 2 strikes against me....I wasn't left handed & I was a girl...:) ). 7:09AM 11/05/11
