How appropriate it would be if former Highland Park standout pitcher Clayton Kershaw could pick up his first career Major League win tonight in Houston?
Pitching back in his home state, Kershaw (0-2) and the Dodgers are facing Wandy Rodriguez (3-3) and the Astros at Minute Maid Park in a few hours.
Kershaw, 20, has a 4.36 ERA and has issued 22 walks in 33 innings in the bigs.
