Regardless of our record or postseason results we are the luckiest fanbase in history getting to watch Clayton Kershaw for so many years. Never take it for granted.
Dodgers win 1-0 on a Kershaw gem where the offense is stuck in neutral all night, God it feels like 2013 all over again
If Clayton Kershaw has millions of fans, I am one of them. If Clayton Kershaw has ten fans, I am one of them. If Clayton Kershaw has only one fan, then that is me. If Clayton Kershaw has no fans, that means I am no more on this earth. If the world is against Clayton Kershaw, I am against the world.
Austin Barnes game winning RBI just as we all predicted. Happy KershawDay everyone and go dodgers! I love winning
Are we allowed to win 1-0 ballgames?!?!
Arenado really gonna lose to the dodgers his whole career
1 run off of a Barnes hit on Kershaw day with the bullpen not giving it up. Feels like a fever dream.
We gotta stop having Kersh not be our opening day starter lol he reminds us every year who he is
Kershaw is the leagues father
#UNDEFEATED IN THE AUSTIN FUCKING BARNES RBI ERA
Kershaw gem
Today was a good day
Austin Barnes bailing the offense out just as we all predicted.

**KERSHAW W #5 AND UNDEFEATED IN THE BRUSDAR IN PIGTAILS ERA**
Winning 1 run games is extra sweet. Hell of a job by Kershaw and the pen.
Also Austin Barnes is the Gregg Popovich of MLB. He still had his resting Barnes face on and looked pissed at Brusdar over a mix up after the W. LOL, never change.
Everyone cool with Brusdar Graterol, closer?
Because it certainly seems that Bazooka is our closer.
A true vintage Kershaw performance, right down to the run support!
I will take it!
Our elite pitching is still alive in there somewhere
Nolan and goldy wish they had that arm in the wbc
Kershaw is pretty good. 
A 1-0 shutout win, wow I am amazed
Vintage Kershaw!!
Is Kershaw’s WHIP under 1.0 now?
It wasn’t pretty but it’s what we needed.
Good game, everyone. New submissions are no longer being hidden. If your submission has not been approved and otherwise follows the sub rules, feel free to resubmit or [message the mods](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=/r/Dodgers) if you have any questions.
Someday we’ll learn the logic of Chris Taylor batting cleanup, and Outman 7th.
This is his 16th season and he’s making these major league hitters look like high schoolers. This is what “past his prime” looks like and because of that, he’s the GOAT.
Clayton Kershaw! That’s all
Game was only 2 hours and 14 minutes long lmao
