One wonders how Koufax and Mathewson lost any games in the WS with those stats...

Lou Brock played in three World Series during the pitching-dominated 1960's. In these 21 games he had 92 plate appearances, giving him a batting line of .391/.424/.655. To top it all off, he stole 14 bases and was only caught twice.
A batting line like that during the late 1960's????
