Manager Dave Roberts announced that Kershaw will start Game 1 of the NLCS against either the Cubs or Nationals on Saturday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, the Dodgers' ace will be on the mound to kick off the best-of-seven set against the winner of Thursday's Cubs vs. Nationals matchup. Kershaw allowed four runs over 4.1 innings in his lone start against the Cubs this season and tossed seven innings of one-run ball in his outing against the Nationals.

Interesting move by Roberts.. trying to read into this choice.

I'd like to know why on earth he would take the best pitcher in baseball out of the game in the 5th inning with the game tied only 2-2?
