When Clayton Kershaw stepped off the mound for the final time this season, an era ended. The kid from Highland Park who became the soul of Dodger baseball has given us everything: three Cy Young Awards, an MVP season, two World Series championships, and that untouchable curveball Vin Scully called "Public Enemy No. 1." This hardcover commemorative book captures every defining moment through 160 pages of exclusive L.A. Times photography and stories. The no-hitter with 15 strikeouts, the Opening Day homer, the October night in 2020 when he finally got his ring, becoming just the 20th pitcher to reach 3,000 strikeouts, these pages preserve the complete story of Number 22, told by the photographers and writers who were there for every pitch and every triumph.
This is the book every Dodgers household needs, whether treating yourself to the definitive Kershaw collection or giving the perfect gift to someone who scheduled their life around his starts. Premium hardcover binding ensures these memories last forever, with photography selected from thousands of L.A. Times images. We witnessed something that may never happen again: a superstar who chose loyalty, one team, one city, forever Blue. Some careers end, but legends live forever.
