If Sandy Koufax had given up 3 runs and then loaded the bases in the 7th before being chased, nobody would have said, oh what a gutsy performance. Kershaw in the regular season has been the equal of Koufax at his peak. He just can't pitch in the post-season worth a damn, for the most part.
And yes the bullpen let him down. But an elite pitcher doesn't load em up and hope his bullpen can rescue him.
