He gave up a home run to former Grizzly Alex Bergman but Justin Turners two-run, homer is the difference in the Dodgers 3-1 win.
"Yeah, I felt good. I think it was hot tonight, so warming up, it didn't take long to get loose. But tried to get that first inning under your belt, and fortunately, I got out of that. And CT hitting that home run, the first pitch of the game, it kind of almost settled us all in a little bit. And just getting that momentum early is huge. And let the crowd kind of feed off that. It was definitely as good a start as we could have hoped for," said Dodgers pitcher, Clayton Kershaw.
So the Dodgers have a 1-0 series lead. It will be a pitching matchup of the Astros, Justin Verlander and Dodgers, Rich Hill. Game time set for just after five where it is once again expected to be near or at 100 degrees.
Game one of the World Series is tonight in Los Angeles.
