Koufax is the greatest left handed pitcher and live ball pitcher of all time. Watched him throw a 1 hitter to beat Spahn. The one hit barely cleared the fence for a HR. Koufax was less than 5 feet from pitching another no hitter. No modern era pitcher has ever been as dominant.

I would like to nominate Nolan Ryan and his seven no-hitters and 5714 strikeouts.

I may still be on rookie status when it comes to collecting cards but boy this is an absolute beauty, and perhaps my favorite card of all the ones in this thread.

As others noted, love the back story and look forward to seeing you tick off the last few ones you need!

Been a while, but added a new piece. Only about 450 total graded so a bit harder to find in a 7 or above.

It’s been way too long but added another Koufax to PC. I’ve only added a few items this year but been busy with other things, hoping to add a few more soon.

I like to trot this one out when I can. Here's Sandy the night he signed with the Dodgers:

Thats pretty cool, seems so relaxed like no big deal just signed with the Dodgers so I guess I'll give baseball a shot, lol.
