For a power pitcher Drysdale has good control and he really knew how to work the strike zone, not just outside and inside but high and low. He got a lot of high strikes that would not be strikes today. Really live fastball with movement. His manager said his1963 World Series shutout against the Yankees where he beat Bouton was one of the best pitched games he ever saw.

HOF person, player. A class act with the "lefty," greatest of times.

thank goodness there were no "tv network rights" at the time and the great Vince Scully could announce these games.

Unbelievable movement on his balls. Reminds me of Dwight Gooden who had similar movement in his prime.

High strike calls!

During the years 1963-1968, baseball rules specifically allowed strikes to be called for pitches shoulder high.

Big D was a real problem for batters.

"Big" Don wouldn't walk batters, he would just hit them with the first pitch. He said, "Why waste those other 3 pitches !".

His HOF plaque says "sidearmer", but I really see more of a 3-quarters delivery.

I agree.

Not sure Drysdale could pitch now because he would watch these guys flipping bats and next time up drill them. He would get thrown out of every game.

That Don in a time machine. Pitchers today aren’t sensitive bitches like they were in the past. If he was coming up today he would not be precisely the same guy that you’re reminiscing about.
