TORONTO — Los Angeles Dodgers legend Clayton Kershaw leaned back against his locker Saturday trying to describe what he just witnessed.
He has three Cy Young awards and two World Series championships.
He has won an MVP award, made 11 All-Star Games, won five Cy Young titles and a Gold Glove, too.
But never, ever in his 18-year career, did he ever see what teammate Yoshinobu Yamamato accomplished Saturday night, going where no man has gone in 33 years.
Yamamoto, after pitching a four-hit complete game and retiring the last 20 batters he faced in the Dodgers’ 5-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays to even the World Series at one-game apiece, may have just changed the future of baseball.
