Koufax Arm Ready as Dodgers Open Spring Work
Sandy Koufax threw 15 minutes in his first spring session since elbow trouble last August and reported the arm felt fine. Ron Perranoski and Claude Osteen also impressed in batting practice as Walt Alston monitored early workouts. Frank Thomas, healthy in 1965 spring debut, hit three home runs for the Phillies and eyed the regular first base job amid moves that could send him to the outfield. Julian Javier’s visa issue kept him from joining the Cardinals while Gary Bell signed a $20,000 contract with the Indians.
