Kershaw 102 Game Score rides high

Phil Gurnee ♦ June 23, 2017 ♦ Leave a comment

When it comes to game score, breaking 100 is the platinum barrier and Clayton Kershaw broke the barrier with his no-hitter against the Rockies at Dodger Stadium.

That is not surprising. What is surprising is that Ted Lilly has the second-best game score against the Rockies at Dodger Stadium. Ted Lilly!

This list has all sorts of odd names.

Odalis Perez – Odalis had five games with a game score greater than 80 in his career. This game was the second best of his career.  They were both one-hitters.

Jeff Weaver – This would be the greatest game that Jeff Weaver pitched for the Dodgers and the greatest game he would pitch while in the NL.  It was the second best game of his long career, while with the Tigers he would throw a one-hitter with eleven K’s for a game score of 94

Brian Bohanon – This would be the second best game of his career. A year later he would be pitching for the Rockies and put up a game score of 85.  Two years later his career was over. Only twice in his career did he throw a game score of 80.

It also has Alex Wood who threw one of his greatest games as a Dodger when he went eight brilliant innings against the Rockies on Sep 16th, 2015.  Obviously,  Dave Roberts wasn’t managing because Alex Wood pitched eight innings.

Alex Wood and Clayton Kershaw will be pitching this weekend. Nice timing
