Clayton Kershaw and Matthew Stafford are going to be playing in the same city for the first time in a very long time. Kershaw has obviously his entire carer playing for the Dodgers, but his childhood friend just got traded to the Los Angeles Rams in a deal with the Lions.
Kershaw and Stafford grew up together playing baseball, soccer, and basketball as kids. Both graduated from Highland Park High School, and both were selected in the first round of their drafts. The Dodgers took Kersh out of high school in 2006 while Stafford was picked up by the Lions in 2009.
