Sandy Koufax took the mound for Los Angeles, entering the game with a strong early-season record, while Jay Hook started for New York, already struggling on a team that had become synonymous with growing pains. The Dodgers were firmly in the National League pennant mix, bolstered by standout performances from Maury Wills and Tommy Davis. Meanwhile, the Mets were navigating their inaugural season, already developing a reputation for lovable futility and looking for stability in their young roster. The game was defined by early and sustained offensive dominance from Los Angeles. After a quiet first inning, the Dodgers erupted in the second and third, powered by home runs from Willie Davis and Ron Fairly, along with consistent hitting throughout the order. Maury Wills added two home runs—one of them an inside-the-park shot—highlighting a rare power display to complement his baserunning. By the fifth inning, the Dodgers had built a double-digit lead. New York showed life in the middle and late innings, including a solo home run by Gil Hodges and multi-hit games from Joe Christopher and Elio Chacon, but the deficit was too much to overcome. Despite giving up 13 hits, Koufax went the distance and struck out 10. The 13–6 win moved the Dodgers closer to the top of the standings in what would become a tight 1962 NL pennant race, eventually ending in a three-game playoff against the San Francisco Giants. Koufax would finish the season 14–7 despite missing time with injury and continued building his Hall of Fame résumé. For the Mets, the game was a snapshot of their debut season's challenges—they would go on to finish with a record of 40–120, still the modern standard for futility. #SandyKoufax #MauryWills #WillieDavis #RonFairly #TommyDavis #GilHodges #1962Dodgers #1962Mets Follow Us ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Website ▶ https://retroseasons.com TikTok ▶   / retroseasons​   Facebook ▶   / retroseasons​   YouTube ▶    / retroseasons​
