Bumgarner just hit his seventh career homerun off of Kershaw.

[Miamarlin21]

My friend and I were talking about baseball and he says "Isn't Kershaw having a bad year? Doesn't he have a high ERA?" And I said yes, but his FIP, xFIP were low, and that's how you need to judge a pitcher. He, unsurprisingly, had never heard of those stats, or BABIP.

I kinda rolled my eyes when I saw the Yankees retiring Bernie Williams # but then I saw he had 7 years with a WAR above 4.8. That's really solid.

Career .858 OPS.

Whole career on the same team. 44th in career WAR for CFers (fg). Only 4 players above him did it on the same team.
