Clayton Kershaw to start Game 1 of NLDS for Dodgers

In a move that was not in the least bit surprising on Tuesday, Clayton Kershaw was named the Game 1 starter for the Dodgers in the National League Division Series against the Nationals as manager Dave Roberts set the bulk of his postseason rotation.

Rich Hill will follow in Game 2, then Kenta Maeda will start Game 3 against Washington.

The Game 4 starter is still to be determined but Julio Urias, who was tabbed to start Thursday against the Padres, remains a possibility to fill that fourth starter role in October.
