Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers had everything going for them until Game 1 of the NLDS started and the Arizona Diamondbacks dominated to an 11-2 win.
The Dodgers had confidence, spending the last week extolling their clubhouse culture, roster chemistry and ability to overcome obstacles and adversity in a 100-win regular season. They had an atmosphere, a sold-out Chavez Ravine revved up after an electric pregame anthem performance and fighter jet flyover. Most of all, they had a plan: Give the ball to Clayton Kershaw, back him up with a deep bullpen and try to strike for a quick win in Game 1 of the National League Division Series.
Initially, the rookie broke in on the ball as it sailed into the gap. Then, he suddenly shifted direction and began to drift back. By the time the drive arrived, Outman had no choice but to try and jump for a last-second catch. The ball clanged off the heel of his mitt, then eluded a desperate lung from his other hand, dropping for a double that set the calamitous inning in motion. What unfolded next occurred in a flash.
