Kershaw homed against Cain on I think opening day 2013.

Cain was pulled and replaced with Kontos. I remember for two reasons:

1) All the "They didn't beat Cain, they beat Kontos" rationalizing from Giants fans. (Kersh's HR was the only run they made, iirc)

2) Kontos also served a cupcake to A-Rod that year to set a new world record for career grand slams, blowing up Lincecum's ERA even further in the process.

I really did not like Kontos that year.

What the gently caress I just saw some footage of the A's game. Their field looks like they hosted a monster truck rally.

Ah, I guess over the years I conflated "Kershaw could have beaten them by himself" with "Kershaw actually did beat them by himself."

The 70s Rock Band Name section of the Dodgers lineup gives me nightmares. I would rather see more Joc and Adrian than Justin Turner Overdrive and Scott Van "Halen" Slyke.

The Giants had a like 18 inning game a couple of Augusts ago. I remember because I had to go to loving work at 7 AM the next day and it went until 2 AM. Around midnight I said gently caress it this is happening and watched every minute of that poo poo fest.

I think it was against the Mets.
