I feel like this has been said about all of his recent high leverage postseason appearances, but Clayton Kershaw is set to make the biggest start of his career... again.
Not only does he have a chance for a signature individual moment, but due to the seeming World Series or bust expectations placed on the Los Angeles Dodgers as well, this would certainly qualify as the dreaded must-win.
Let’s be clear, Kershaw is a great pitcher regardless of what happens, and to be fair, he is dealing with back spasms. However, his playoff struggles are not made up.
