Don Drysdale teamed with Sandy Koufax during the 1960s to form one of the most
dominating pitching duos in history. The ferocious hurler used brushback pitches
and a sidearm fastball to intimidate batters, and his 154 hit batsmen remain a modern
National League record. Drysdale won 25 games and the Cy Young Award in 1962, and
set a record with 58 consecutive scoreless innings in 1968. In 1965 the all-around
athlete was the Dodgers' only .300 hitter and in two separate seasons he hit seven
home runs, tying the National League record.
