After being shelved for 44 days with a shoulder injury, Kershaw allows only one run in five innings in a 2-1 win. Max Muncy’s solo home run and bases-loaded walk account for both Dodger runs.
LOS ANGELES ― Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw delivered a 90-mph fastball to the first batter he faced, Jurickson Profar, at 7:10 p.m. Thursday night. He would flash a new pitch before his five innings against the Colorado Rockies were over. Otherwise, Kershaw picked up right where he left off.After being shelved for 44 days with a shoulder injury, Kershaw allowed only one run in five innings in the Dodgers’ 2-1 win over the Colorado Rockies.
“Anytime 22’s on the mound you have a good feeling about how the game’s going to turn out,” Muncy said. “I think it’s a boost for everyone in this clubhouse. Hopefully we can keep it going down the stretch the rest of the way. It’s just fun to be on the same field as that guy.” Kershaw complemented his 90-92 fastball, curveball and slider with a seldom-seen changeup. He said he threw the pitch four times and “three were OK.”“I’m excited to be back and hopefully have a good six, seven weeks until playoffs start and get ready to go,” he said.
In the eighth inning, the Dodgers loaded the bases against Rockies reliever Tommy Doyle on walks by David Peralta and Freddie Freeman, sandwiched around a Mookie Betts single.
