Clayton Kershaw (16-7, 2.13) vs. Jacob deGrom (14-8, 2.54).
After almost a week of waiting, this is IT. The weight of past postseason shortcomings, on the shoulders of our three-time Cy Young Award winner and reigning National League MVP. The pressure of a first postseason appearance on the pulse of the 2014 NL Rookie of the Year. The hangover from nightmare NLDS' past, tightening any Dodger fan's sphincter to total constipation.
Let's get this party started. Let's grab the first of 11 wins, starting tonight!
