04-04-08 - Gameday: Kuroda vs. Germano at Petco
This is the moment he’s been waiting for. He’ll be so geeked that he’ll give up seven runs in the first inning or he’ll pitch a shutout. What happens should tell us volumes about his makeup and character. Kuroda gets his first regular season Dodger start, and what better team to beat than the Friars! Kuroda has a 0.00 ERA this year. Pretty Good, huh?
Did you know…
