Clayton Kershaw vs. Tim Tebow? Watch for the slider

Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw will face hitters in a simulated game Tuesday in Los Angeles, and it just happens to coincide with the baseball tryout former Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow is holding in the same city.

But no, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner won’t be stepping into the batter’s box to face Kershaw, who’s working his way back from mild disk irritation.

“Great athlete. I don’t know if he’s ready for the Clayton Kershaw slider, though,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts joked.
