Game 92 Thread: July 18 @ Nationals, ??

Clayton Kershaw (6-6, 2.85) vs. Doug Fister (3-4, 4.08)

Technically we're playing 1 and 4/9ths, as Nomo pointed out via Twitter last night, but it will seem like two. Somewhere Ernie Banks is slightly happy.

Kershaw makes his first post-All Star Game start, going up against 
Kershaw will need to shake off the funk from his poor performance in that game in front of a nationwide audience. Why does that scenario ring a bell? Can't put my finger on it.

Nationals are missing some of their key players for this series due to injury, and it's always a crapshoot for teams coming off the break, so Dodgers have an opening to make a statement in this series before moving up the coast to face the Barves.

It's a day full of Dodgers (for those of you who can watch*) so pull up a chair and crack a brew.

*Rumor has it this one may be on FS1
