After sweeping the New York Yankees in the 1963 World Series, Sandy Koufax (l-r), Walter O’Malley, Don Drysdale and Johnny Podres are all smiles at the Dodger victory party on October 7.

I’ve never quite known what the right word was for Walter. Magnetic? Dynamic? He was all of that. We used to talk quite a bit about business things. I’d ask his advice and he was always helpful. He’d never say, ‘This should be your decision,’ but I always came away knowing what it should be. I suppose a lot of people didn’t like him, but I think everyone respected him.”

Don Drysdale
Los Angeles Times, August 10, 1979
