Clayton Kershaw is pitching like Clayton Kershaw.
That's good news for the Los Angeles Dodgers and fantastic news for baseball.
We're talking about the greatest pitcher of his generation. He's worth rooting for—Dodgers fan or not.
In his most recent start, which came September 7 against the Colorado Rockies, Kershaw allowed two earned runs with seven strikeouts over six innings at Coors Field. It wasn't the best outing of his career—a high bar to clear—but it was yet another strong effort from the three-time National League Cy Young Award winner and one-time NL MVP.
