American Hall of Famer and one of the most intimidating pitchers of his era, whose willingness to pitch inside, devastating overhand curve and 209 career wins made him a cornerstone of the Dodgers' dynasty.
Don Drysdale was the Los Angeles Dodgers' fierce right-hander who, alongside Sandy Koufax, formed one of baseball's greatest pitching duos. Known for his willingness to brush back hitters — he led the league in hit batters multiple times — Drysdale's exceptional slider and competitive fire produced six All-Star selections and a World Series championship. He set the consecutive scoreless innings record in 1968 with 58.2 innings.
