LOS ANGLES - In 2014, Clayton Kershaw pitched a one-hitter at AT&T Park. A year later, Kershaw was on the mound again at Chavez Ravine when the Dodgers won a rout.
On Friday night, for the third time in four years, the Dodgers clinched the National League West title by beating the Giants, 4-2.
The did it this time after one of their most sacred totems, Tommy Lasorda, celebrated his 90th birthday on the field and told the crowd, "You are the greatest fans in the world. We owe you a championship."
The debt is 29 years old.
