It’s not all that often that fans are treated to a matchup like this. For the Dodgers, Clayton Kershaw is on the bump at Dodger Stadium facing off against Max Scherzer and the Washington Nationals. Two sure-fire, first-ballot Hall of Famers still in (mostly) in their prime.
Before the game, LA manager Dave Roberts discussed the competition between the former Cy Young award winners, opining that — no doubt — these two feel the added fire when facing one another.
The level of compete from both these guys is next level. And obviously when they’re opposing one another I think it might be — if at all possible — it might be heightened that much more.
