As an aside to this regular season game, an Old-Timers Day was held and held fascination for fans getting the opportunity to watch 'old-timer' Sandy Koufax pitch.
To put how special the occasion was in perspective, keep in mind that Koufax had been out of baseball for just slightly less than three years and was still only 33-something at the time.

As a personal aside to the game: if by some slim chance you're reading this, Craig Covello, hope you and your family are doing well!
