LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw on Monday was named as one of the top three finishers in National League Cy Young Award voting, with the Dodgers ace joined by Nationals teammates Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg.
The Cy Young Award winners, voted on by the Baseball Writers Association of America, will be revealed on Wednesday, Nov. 15 in a 3 p.m. PT program on MLB Network.
Assured of a top-3 finish in 2017, Kershaw joins Greg Maddux (1992-98) as the only pitchers to finish in the top five in Cy Young voting in seven consecutive seasons.
