After two starts, Kershaw is sporting a 9.90 ERA & has allowed 13 hits & 6 home runs! The real head-scratcher was his season opener against the offensive anemic San Diego Padres, who found away to take Kershaw deep four times -- with back-to-back HRs happening twice; Nick Hundley & Adrian Gonzalez during the bottom of the 3rd, while Max Venable & Scott Hairston accomplished the same feat during the bottom of the 5th.
With the Dodgers & Giants tied at 3-2 in second, the two teams played each other for Kershaw's second outing for the season -- his performance was not much better, allowing home runs to Buster Posey (2) & Pablo Sandoval (1).
Meanwhile, his Giant counterpart, Tim Lincecum, is having a great season in two outings, with a 2-0 record, 1.38 ERA, 15 K's, while allowing only two walks & no homers to date.
Buster Posey, by the way, went 4-for-5, with a HR & double, 2 RBI & 4 runs scored; His season to date: 12-for-24 (.500), 2 HR, 6 RBI, 5 doubles, 9 runs with a out-of-the-world 1.529 OPS (.958 Slugging / .571 On-Base Percentage)!
