If Wednesday’s game proves to be the last one in a Dodger uniform for Clayton Kershaw, it will do little to tarnish his legacy said teammate Mookie Betts.
“He’s gonna have a statue, so we have to kind of keep that in mind,” Betts said. “In the grand scheme of things, Kershaw is a first-ballot Hall of Famer, one of the best pitchers to ever do it.
“So if you let two innings kind of ruin that, then you don’t know baseball.”
But, Betts confessed, Kershaw’s relief appearance in Game 3 of the National League Division Series was hard to watch.
