Actually, I don't even know how you can call it choking at this point. 2013-2017 oh, absolutely. But he's just not a good pitcher anymore. this should be expected by people far smarter than us.
Kershaw should be every SF fan’s favorite non Giant. He will forever ensure their hated rival doesn’t win a WS.
Starting him in this game and leaving Ryu for the first road game was another stroke of brilliance, too. Not good or smart use of what you've got and what and when they're best at. Pile of shit pushing the buttons. But, all in all, nothing, top to bottom, we didn't expect. And here it is already.
