This year's World Series between the Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers has all the ingredients to cook up an incredible Fall Classic.

A shaky start from ace Clayton Kershaw and poor defence that committed four errors helped the Brewers take Game 1 of the ALCS 6-5.

Kershaw dominated the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night, striking out a career-high 15 and allowing his only baserunner on a throwing error by shortstop Hanley Ramirez in Los Angeles' 8-0 victory.
