For Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers tonight couldn’t have gone any better.
The game started off with a bang as Ronald Acuña Jr. led off with a double to deep left center field. However, that was just about all the offense the Braves could muster against future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw.
Anibal Sanchez was pretty good tonight by normal standards, but a two run home run allowed to Manny Machado in the first inning paired with a solo shot by Yasmani Grandal in the fifth was all the Dodgers would need.
