1965: Mays and Koufax battled for the NL MVP
In 1965, Sandy Koufax and Willie Mays had superb seasons. It showed on the MVP balloting.
Eventually, Willie Mays, who hit 52 home runs & 112 RBI, was named National League Most Valuable Player.
Mays received 224 and Koufax got 177.
Sandy Koufax won 26 plus a 2.04 ERA & 382 K’s. Koufax was indeed indispensable that year for the LA Dodgers who beat the Twins in the Series.
The MVP decision was correct. The award should go to every day players, like Mays.
Two great players but Mays was the MVP. Koufax won the Cy Young.
