1960 Pirates vs 1963 Dodgers

Koufax wasn't on his game at all. After some lead changes, the Dodgers took a 5-4 lead into the top of the ninth before Dick Groat's two run homer gave the Pirates a 6-5 lead. The Dodgers couldn't rally in the bottom of the inning, so it's a disappointing night for the Chavez Ravine faithful.
