On this very day in 1962, Dodger Hall of Fame pitcher Sandy Koufax threw the first of his four no-hitters and the very first no-no by a Dodger in Dodger Stadium history. Koufax blanked the New York Mets on a Saturday evening, 5-0. He went on to throw three more no-hitters, including a perfect game on September 9, 1965. Koufax will be featured on the ninth bobblehead night of the season on August 7 when the Dodgers take on the Rockies at 7:10 p.m. This marks the Hall of Famer’s first-ever Dodger Stadium bobblehead and it will be given out to fans with the first 50,000 tickets.
