Matt Kemp of the Los Angeles is a stud, pure and simple. As chants of “MVP” echoed throughout Dodger Stadium, Kemp circled the bases after hitting a walk-off home run over the center field wall. The clutch dinger was a perfect way to end a competitive game against the surprising Washington Nationals on April 28.
