During the Giants' broadcast celebrating their victory over the Dodgers, Mike Krukow highlighted the significance of pitcher Fernando Valenzuela's Hall of Fame candidacy. A graphic displayed pitchers with the best home ERAs in the rivalry, listing Krukow at 1.94 ERA, followed by Valenzuela at 2.07. Krukow, while surprised by his own statistical success, shifted focus to Valenzuela, who made a significant impact in the 1980s with multiple All-Star appearances, yet lacks the statistics typically expected of Hall of Fame members.
Krukow called for Hall of Fame consideration for Fernando Valenzuela, saying, "I hope Fernando Valenzuela gets in the Hall of Fame someday." Valenzuela, a star of the 1980s, won both Rookie of the Year and Cy Young awards in 1981.
In the Giants-Dodgers rivalry, Krukow boasts a remarkable 1.94 ERA, making him the top pitcher in home ERA since the teams moved to California in 1958.
During a broadcast celebrating his statistics, Krukow said, "I had no idea that statistic even existed," while sharing the spotlight with his longtime partner and rival.
Krukow's broadcast highlighted Kershaw, Marichal, Koufax, and Valenzuela, showcasing the competitive history and achievements of pitchers from both teams throughout the rivalry.
