Sandy Koufax
Full Player Profile →
Sandy Koufax produced one of the greatest short peaks in pitching history. From 1962 to 1966, he was virtually unhittable. He won three Cy Young Awards during that stretch. Koufax led the league in strikeouts four times. His ERA dominance redefined left-handed power pitching. Injuries shortened his career but not his impact. He threw multiple no-hitters including a perfect game. Koufax excelled in postseason play. His peak run prevention is historically elite. He remains the ultimate example of peak-over-longevity greatness.
