When I was 12 YO Dad took me to Dodger/Braves game, double header at the coliseum in 1959.

Dodgers won both games, Koufax pitched one game, another left hander Danny McDevitt pitched the other.

Made two predictions to my dad on the way home:

1. Koufax would become one the greatest pitcher ever to play the game.

2.. Tommy Davis would some day win the batting title.

Sure it was ‘59? Tommy D. only had one at bat that season.
