Arrr matey! In the grand tale o’ baseball's finest one-two jabs, ol’ Clayton Kershaw be pointin’ his hook to the scallywags o’ the Astros, who pilfered the crown in 2017 with a trick o' the trade! Aye, a right swindle on the high seas o’ sportin’ honor!
Arrr, gather 'round me hearties, for I be tellin’ ye the tale of Clayton Kershaw, a mighty pitcher of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who be haunted by the infamous year of 2017! Aye, the Dodgers sailed through the seas of the MLB with a record of 104 victories, only to find themselves in a tempest against the treacherous Houston Astros in the World Series. Alas, they lost in a nail-biting seven-game duel, but that be not the end of this yarn.Two years hence, a dastardly secret washed ashore! The Astros, scallywags they be, were caught thievin’ signs to give their batters the ol' heads-up on Kershaw’s pitches. The captain and quartermaster of the Astros, A.J. Hinch and Jeff Luhnow, were sent to Davy Jones’ locker while the crew walked away scot-free—except for poor Beltran, who never even got to set sail with the Mets!
Kershaw, now with a crew led by mighty Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts, be reflectin’ on the cheats of yore. He cast a side-eye at Altuve and Bregman, noting, “But they cheated, so that’s not really the same!” Aye, the legend of 2017 be a dark cloud over his career, and perhaps if the Astros weren't up to nefarious deeds, Kershaw’s legacy would shine a bit brighter on the high seas of baseball!
