1935
Happy birthday to Sandy Koufax, one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball history, who was born on this day in 1935 (82 years ago). He is born in Brooklyn, and will go on to pitch for the hometown Dodgers. He pitched to a 9-10 record after being signed as a bonus baby, but his career exploded a few years after the team moved to Los Angeles. Koufax will post a 129-47 record and capture three Cy Young Awards in LA. He won all three when only one award was given annually for the two leagues.
