Don Drysdale & Vin Scully Signed ONL Baseball (JSA LOA)

Rawlings Official National League baseball. Hand-signed in blue ink pen by Don Drysdale (D. 1993, Los Angeles Dodgers, HOF) and Vin Scully (Los Angeles Dodgers).

Don Drysdale was one of the dominant starting pitchers of the 1960s for the Brooklyn / Los Angeles Dodgers. The hurler (nicknamed "Big D" by fans) used brushback pitches and a sidearm fastball to intimidate batters.

Drysdale was also considered a good hitter for a pitcher. In a total of 14 seasons, he had 218 hits, including 29 home runs, and was occasionally used as a pinch-hitter. In 1962, Drysdale won 25 games and the Cy Young Award. In 1968, he set Major League records with six consecutive shutouts and 58 consecutive scoreless innings. In 1965, he was the Dodgers' only .300 hitter and tied his own National League record for pitchers with seven home runs. That year he won 23 games and helped the Dodgers to their third World Championship in Los Angeles. He ended his career with 209 wins, 2,486 strikeouts, 167 complete games and 49 shutouts. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1984.

Scully is best known as the play-by-play announcer for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He has been with the dodgers for more than 65 seasons which is the longest tenure of any broadcaster with a single team in professional sports history.
