Ok, this question is from my son.

Four players hit 7 home runs against Sandy Koufax.
Name them.

I will guess the obvious, Aaron, Mays, F Robinson, Banks, I think those are the top HR hitters of his ERA in the NL.

If it was that easy I would have not posted the question .

Felipe Alou takes Mays' place on list.

I did not cheat, only used available resources.

You got it. But available resources,, does that mean you looked it up?

Three out of four ain't bad for a guess. Alou would have been well down my list, other righty batters that came to mind were Cepeda and Clemente.

Clemente hit 6 including the longest HR ever hit off Koufax. You have to remember that some of those games were played in Forbes Field too, instead of easy parks to hit HRs in.
