The 2017 World Series will begin on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium when the Houston Astros travel to Los Angeles for Game 1. There's plenty at stake, beyond the obvious, with the Astros looking for their first World Series win while the Dodgers seek their first in almost three decades. L.A.'s Game 1 starter Clayton Kershaw (18-4, 2.31) was just seven months old the last time the Dodgers were in the Fall Classic.
