Jim Lefebvre was honored as the 1965 National League Rookie of the Year, achieving this distinction by leading the Dodgers with 12 home runs and 69 RBI.
Growing up in Inglewood, Lefebvre's journey included being a bat boy for the Dodgers, making his debut in the big leagues a dream come true by hitting .250 in 1965.
Lefebvre's successful career featured highlights such as an All-Star Game selection and the historical achievement of being part of the first all-switch-hitter infield.
The Dodgers' 1962 trade of Stan Williams to the Yankees for Bill Skowron marked a significant decision, as Williams had a solid record and an All-Star selection.
