Sandy Koufax received the most votes for a left-handed pitcher in MLB's 1999 All-Century Team, but insisted he wouldn't attend the event unless Warren Spahn was also included. Koufax later assisted Spahn, 78 at the time, up the dugout steps so they could take the field side-by-side
I heard about this story today on Episode 234 of the "Baseball by the Book" podcast (approx. 16 minutes in). The teller, Jane Leavy, is a former acclaimed sportswriter, who penned several Baseball related books including Koufax's biography "Sandy Koufax: A Lefty's Legacy".
Great podcast all around with many lovely stories therein. Especially adored the information about Koufax's notably large hands: "Why was Koufax so great? Shake his hands and then come back to me!"

Who's the hitter version of Sandy koufax?
By that I mean a position player with excellent stats and a relatively short career who retired at the peak of his powers. Has any such player existed in MLB?
In the 1965 World Series, an arthritic Sandy Koufax skipped the first game for Yom Kippur. He gave up 1 run in 6 innings in game 2. He then threw shutouts in game 5 and 7 with three and two days rest respectively. He won WSMVP. baseball-reference.com/bo…
