Left-Handed Bellwether Holtzman lifts A's toward first World Series
The Oakland Athletics lean on left-hander Ken Holtzman after a string of injuries and holdouts. Once with the Cubs, Holtzman recalls Leo Durocher’s era, his near no hitter against Sandy Koufax, and his best game a 1-0 12 inning win over the Pirates. He hopes to reach the World Series with Oakland.
