Did anyone see Koufax throw out the first pitch today? CHECK IT OUT IF YOU DIDN'T!!

The jury will be out for quite some time on just how many things the Dodgers have done right (under the new ownership group), but bringing Sandy back into the fold has to be at or near the top of the list.

Very cool video - thanks for posting it up, Bobby.

I am not a Dodger fan ... but that was a GREAT minute to watch! Thanks for sharing Bobby.

What a great idea to open up the new season. +1 for the new Dodgers ownership.

Very awesome Opening Day, my favorite day of the year!

Reminds me of a joke I heard variously attributed to Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle, etc. Paraphrasing:

Fan 1 - How do you think Koufax would do against today's hitters??
Fan 2 - Probably 10-12 wins, 3.50 ERA, make a good 3rd or 4th starter.
Fan 1 - What???? This is SANDY KOUFAX!!!
Fan 2 - You forget - he is 77 years old.....................

That was pretty cool. Hershiser had some pretty amazing years as a Dodger too. Suffered a lot from lack of run support.

I like how Mattingly made him go back to the rubber.....I think he forgot he is 77 years old!

What a cool moment. Kudos to the person who thought that up.

It beats videos of basketball players with bones sticking out of their legs.

Koufax is definitely allowed to one-hop the first pitch. Cool video! He did much better than Baba Booey!

Not a Dodjuh fan but always loved SK. Nobody noticed his period flannel jersey midst all the polyesters?

Great vid!

i'm surprised the infield didn't sink under the weight of all that amazing history being carried by the group of champions who stood there together.

now it's Donnie's turn, get him to THE SHOW, Bums.

Very nice play by the Dodgers.

Brings back great memories of my childhood reading the box scores with my Dad and watching the great Koufax pitch.

Awesome!

Dodgers suck, but that was pretty awesome.

I loved how Mattingly came out to "relieve" Magic.

Scripted first pitchs with sports legends are kinda cool.

It reminded me of when the Giants had Jerry Rice thrw out the first pitch for 2010.

CocoaBeachDodgers

Definitely brought out a few tears in this household!

BTW, what a game!

Great to see Sandy Koufax again as he doesn't do many public appearances anymore.

lightningboy

Never saw him play, and not a Dodgers fan. But I am a sports history fan and that gave me goose bumps. Thanks

Great video! It appears as though that particular site removed the video. It is still on YouTube though. Does anyone know if any of the other legends have something to do with their respective teams?
