At some point during the next week, Clayton Kershaw will step onto the mound for the final time as a Major League pitcher. When he does, his biggest fans – his kids – will be cheering him on.
Last month, the 37-year-old announced he was going to retire at the end of the 2025 season. With the final games of his career approaching as the Los Angeles Dodgers take on the Toronto Blue Jays during the World Series, Kershaw received a special voice message from his four children, Cali, Charley, Cooper and Chance via The Player's Tribune.
