The left-handed Koufax became a double shutout winner with a three-hit, 10- strikeout effort to put nine men on base as Alston went to his bunting game with a lead instead of hitting Tor runs. Koufax walked three Twins.

Two of those walks came in the first inning with two out when he passed Tony Oliva and Killebrew, but Battey struck out on a change-up pitch.

After the Twins' fifth-inning threat was dissipated, Koufax retired 12 men in order. Then Harmon Killebrew singled with one out in the ninth, but Koufax reared back to strike out Earl Battey and Bob Allison. Battey went down on three straight fast balls, the last for a called strike. Allison ticked one pitch and eventually fanned on a 2-2 fast ball to end the 1965 season finally.

Koufax, a quiet bachelor of moderate tastes, did not turn cartwheels off the mound. He did not clap his hands or bounce up and down. He simply walked toward the dugout, receiving congratulations from his teammates as he went. His demeanor was befitting that of the "best pitcher in baseball." The Dodgers did not bomb the Twins. They collected only seven hits off five pitchers Kaat, Al Worthington, John Klippstein, Jim Merritt and Jim Perry.

The winners had opportunities galore, but they left "It took the best pitcher in baseball to finally kill us off," said Manager Sam Mele of the Twins proudly after it was over. A record crowd of 50,596 persons watched the game. Manager Walter Alston of Los Angeles said, "It was the toughest decision I've ever had to make, choosing between Don Drysdale and Koufax for the final game." Drysdale had not pitched since Sunday. Koufax made the decision a breeze as the game wore on. It was obvious, after he got a 2-0 lead in the fourth inning and third baseman Jim Gilliam's superb play checked the Twins in the fifth, that Koufax was not to be disturbed en route to his fourth World Series triumph in six decisions.

In the early innings, Koufax did not look overpowering. His curve was not sharp. Once he saw the Dodgers' two-spot on the board, however, the Twins were dead. Koufax went mostly with his fast ball, and it grew hotter with each pitch. He was blazing in the final inning.

"When I got into the late innings," Koufax explained, "I could feel I had a lot of strength left. I was concerned down the Twins. He won the fifth game, 7 to 0, on four hits Monday. The Dodgers, upholding National League supremacy for the third straight year (St. Louis won in 1964 and Los Angeles in 1963), became the fifth club in history to lose the first two games, then go on to victory.
