An Important Western Collection

The 1965 MLB World Series was the best of seven playoffs between National League champion Los Angeles (former Brooklyn) Dodgers and American League champion Minnesota Twins. 
The Dodgers won in seven games, thanks mainly to the heroics of Sandy Koufax who was named its Most Valuable Player. Koufax did not pitch in Game 1, as it fell on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur, but he pitched in Game 2 and then tossed shutouts in Games 5 and 7 (with only two days of rest in between).
