Spoken Word
Donald Scott "Don" Drysdale (July 23, 1936 – July 3, 1993) was an American professional baseball player and television sports commentator. He played as a right-handed pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers for his entire career in Major League Baseball. Inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1984, Drysdale was one of the most dominant pitchers of the late 1950s and early to mid 1960s. Standing 6'5" tall, he was an intimidating presence on the pitcher's mound and, wasn't afraid to throw pitches close to batters in order to keep them off balance. Drysdale won the 1962 Cy Young Award and is known for setting a Major League Baseball record by pitching 58 2⁄3 consecutive scoreless innings in 1968. After his playing career, he became a radio and television broadcaster.
