There were plenty of jokes on Twitter/X as Game 3 of the World Series extended into its sixth hour about National Baseball Hall of Famer and Los Angeles Dodgers legend Sandy Koufax, who is 89 years old, warming up in the Dodgers’ bullpen as the team inched closer to running out of pitchers.
Koufax attended the game at Dodger Stadium and was shown during the broadcast. And MLB writer Anthony Castrovince confirmed that Koufax did, in fact, stay for all 18 innings of the game before the Dodgers’ Freddie Freeman ended it with a walk-off home run to center field.
Koufax pitched a complete-game shutout for the Dodgers in Game 7 of the 1965 World Series against the Minnesota Twins.
Koufax pitched for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats for one season in 1954 after earning a basketball scholarship at UC in 1953.
Koufax finished his season at UC with a 3-1 record and 2.81 ERA, with 51 strikeouts in 32 innings. He signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers and made his big-league debut in 1955, when Brooklyn won the World Series.
