a favorite memory- I was a senior in high school in NJ. My daddy took me out of school to go to the World Series. When Koufax broke the record there was huge applause throughout the stadium and I was impressed that it wasn't just the Dodger fans recognizing his achievement. Whenever I run into reference to this game--or seek it :)-- I always say "I was there."
