More on Koufax’s latest appearance

This is evidently big news.

Ian Chaffee writes his take on the fundraiser at which Koufax appeared for his friend Joe Torre on Bleacher Reports in which he compares the Hall of Famer’s shunning of the spotlight to modern athletes who can’t seem to get enough attention.

“After the death of JD Salinger earlier this year, Koufax might be the most famous hermit left in American ‘public’ life…,” writes Chaffee, who wonders why the media still chases after him like big game hunters after the rare white rhinoceros.

Why not focus instead on Sandy, who, as many a Jewish parent has told their child, once refused to pitch on Yom Kippur.

55 years of beautiful L.A. Dodger tradition, from Sandy Koufax to Joe Torre.

You’re God damn right we’re living in the past.

And finally, a news story on the event from the Los Angeles Times.
