– The Los Angeles Dodgers are one win away from their second World Series victory in three years after beating the Tampa Bay Rays 5-2 in Game 6 on Monday night. But if the Dodgers are going to win it all, they’ll have to do so without Clayton Kershaw, who became a free agent after last year’s World Series. The 36-year-old left-hander signed a six-year, $215 million contract with the Dodgers in December that included a hefty $1 million signing bonus, reports the Los Angeles Times. It was a hefty payday for a player who had been considered one of the game’s best, with a .277 average, .291 on-base percentage, and .341 slugging percentage during the regular season. But his biggest payday came last year when he signed a six-year, $36 million contract with the Dodgers that included a $1 million signing bonus, reports USA Today.
