Game 138 Thread: Sept. 8 @ Angels, 7p

Clayton Kershaw (12-6, 2.18) vs. Andrew Heaney (6-2, 3.18).

Another battle of Los Angeles this evening, this time between a pitcher who is going up (Kershaw, with a career-high 15 Ks last outing, and 7-0 with a 0.93 ERA the last two months) and a pitcher who is going down (Angels rookie Heaney, who has an ERA of 4.62 in his last seven starts, accruing a 1-2 record). Heaney did get a win his last outing, with seven frames of 3 ER ball in a 9-4 win vs. Oakland. But I think Kershaw will remain calm like a bomb tonight anyway, and hopefully help us notch our fifth consecutive win.

Any opinions on whether Greinke is with us in 2016?

Steve Sax said...

Taylor Featherston was not amused by our insipid humor in last night's GT.

But he strikes out anyway.
