What a climb he had to make, much less how he worked to improve.

There is a great book out there ‘The Last Innocents: The Collision of the Turbulent Sixties & the Los Angeles Dodgers’. For baseball fans a great read, esp if yer a Bum.

Was watching a series on MLB network called "Baseball Seasons" and was watching the episode on the 1965 season which culminated with Dodgers vs Twins in the World Series, and he was a guy I didn't know about before seeing that episode, but kept hearing his name repeatedly as he figured prominently in that season and that series.
