Sandy Koufax has won the sixth Lifetime Achievement Award presented by Baseball Digest. The Hall of Fame pitcher was honored Thursday with an annual distinction. Willie Mays won the inaugural award in 2021, followed by Vin Scully, Joe Torre, Dusty Baker and Bob Costas. The 90-year-old Koufax made his major league debut for his hometown Brooklyn Dodgers in 1955. After the team moved to Los Angeles, he became one of baseball’s most dominant pitchers during the 1960s. The left-hander won three Cy Young Awards, an MVP trophy and five consecutive ERA titles. Twice he was selected World Series MVP.
