Clayton Kershaw and Max Scherzer will forever be tied together. Along with Justin Verlander, there's an easy and obvious elite tier for the generation of pitchers whose prime ran through the 2010s. Scherzer and Kershaw both debuted in 2008.

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw took on fellow future Hall of Famer Max Scherzer of the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night and earned the victory with help from Mookie Betts.

Clayton Kershaw gives up seven hits and one earned run over six innings and Mookie Betts hits a two-run home run in the Dodgers' 5-1 win over Toronto.
