In case people think Stan Musial didn't face good pitching, consider this:

(AI overview)
Stan Musial had remarkable success against Sandy Koufax, hitting .342 (13-for-38) with 2 home runs and 7 RBIs in 44 career plate appearances. Because Musial's peak years preceded Koufax's dominance, most of their head-to-head matchups took place at the very end of Musial's career.

Musial was ages 34-42 in the years vs. Koufax. His last 4 years he hit .333, .500, .500, .250.

Also a lefty/lefty matchup. Koufax was believed to throw 95-98 mph.
