Clayton Kershaw, Dodgers hold on to win Game 1 of the NLDS

WASHINGTON, D.C. >> For Clayton Kershaw, it was the equivalent of a "trust fall."Even before taking the mound for Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Washington Nationals, the Dodgers ace said he felt less of a burden to carry his team this postseason. It was "a different feeling" than he had in the past, this feeling that he could "rely" on his teammates, born of watching the Dodgers thrive during his 75-day absence.
