Default a brief newspaper search

They likely started the last day or so of September, 1960. Here is a press clip from October 2, giving the results of the preceding day and stating that the series was tied 1-1. BTW, if you're looking to find a ticket stub from his debut, you may want to consider that there were four or five earlier inter-squad games that may have had tickets for the brand-new Los Angeles team. As you probably know, West signed on 9/20, so you have a pretty small window to search.
