Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw has already raised his national profile significantly in recent years. He has won two Cy Young awards and just got paid a deal north of $200 million, all under the bright lights and glamour of the new-look Dodgers.

Now he’s taking his act to the sitcom world. Kershaw will appear on an episode of New Girl this week on Fox.

Here’s a video clip from Fox’s YouTube channel:

Talk about a pick-up line that gets right to the point:

"I love YOU! Hi, I’m Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers.”"

I wonder if that’s the line Kershaw ran with in real life before he got married…it would probably work pretty well, no?
