1966 Sandy Koufax Beats Cubs 2-1 PSA Type 1 Encapsulated Chicago Daily News Photo – Measures Approx. 8" x 10"
SANDY DEALING SMOKE!!!... April 22, 1966, Sandy Koufax would go the distance at Wrigley Field to best the Cubbies by a 2-1 score, yielding only six hits while striking out 11 batters for his second win of the season. The fireballer would go on to claim the NL's Cy Young Award and the pitching Triple Crown, with his 27 wins, 1.73 ERA, and 317 strikeouts all pacing the Senior Circuit. This magnificent 8" x 10" PSA Type 1 photo reveals the immortal Koufax delivering one of his virtually unhittable pitches with Wrigley Field's ivy-covered wall serving as a classic backdrop. Magnificent contrast and clarity are the highlights of this 57-year-old masterpiece which also includes a Chicago Daily News caption on its verso.
