Friday night was an emotional one for the Los Angeles Dodgers, as legendary southpaw and future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw was making his final career start in the regular season, against division rival San Francisco Giants, no less, after he announced earlier this week that he would be retiring at season's end .
Kershaw has been in the middle of a resurgent year, and he certainly had the quality left to pitch another year if he wanted. But the Dodgers legend is calling it quits come the end of the year, and there's no better way for him to go out in the regular season than to bring his team to the postseason yet again for the 13th consecutive season and the 15th time in his illustrious career.
The Dodgers sealed a 6-3 win over the Giants on Friday, moving their record to 87-6
