Why NLCS Game 6 comes down to one thing -- Kershaw vs. Rizzo

Among the reasons to like baseball is the "Awesome People Hanging Out Together" aspect of it.

As the Cubs and Dodgers prepare for Game 6, the matchup between Rizzo and Kershaw looms large. For an example of how crucial ace pitcher/star slugger matchups can be, look back no further than Sunday.
