On Wednesday night, Los Angeles Dodgers icon Clayton Kershaw became the 20th pitcher in baseball history to record 3,000 career strikeouts, and only the fourth left-hander. He fanned Vinny Capra of the Chicago White Sox for the milestone strikeout in the top of the sixth.

On a night that said plenty about the 18-year relationship between Kershaw and the Dodgers and Kershaw and the fan base, the left-hander showed why he stands alone among the 20 names on the list.

Jota is also known for his time on the Portugal national team alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, who penned a heartfelt tribute to his late teammate as the tragic accident makes waves around the sports world. LeBron James, a part-owner of Liverpool, also sent his condolences.
