We were all given a wonderful treat, as Clayton Kershaw tossed a historic opening day 94 pitch 4-hit complete game shut-out win, while also hitting the go-ahead solo home run in the bottom of the eighth frame, which sealed the Dodger’s victory over the evil world champion Giants.

Luis Cruz made several solid defensive plays, and Carl Crawford collected two hits, and scored a run in his Dodger debut.
Before the game, many celebrities were on hand to lend a helping hand to support the Boys in Blue. From Kobe Bryant, Snoop, Britney Spears, and Alyssa Milano among others.
