Koufax had a perfect game until walking Ed Bailey with one out in the eighth inning, holding just a 1-0 lead until the bottom of the eighth.
The 1963 season was a pinnacle of Koufax's career with a 25-5 record, 1.88 ERA, 306 strikeouts, and multiple accolades including Cy Young and MVP.
Koufax is known for pitching four of the Dodgers' 23 no-hitters, holds the only perfect game by a Dodgers pitcher, and was the youngest player inducted into the Hall of Fame.
