I appreciate the anecdotes from superstars talking about how hard Koufax was to hit. But Aaron is just being modest, what with his career .362 average and 1.077 OPS against Sandy.

Anecdotes are great but the numbers are the numbers.
Did it decrease all pitchers' walks by the amount that Koufax's decreased? I'm not going to do the math and am just going to bet you $1 that it didn't.

As for the anecdotes, that's why I said "this side of Aaron" that means - not including Aaron.
