The Dodgers dropped their game on Saturday night to the Tampa Bay Rays by a score of 9-8 but were down 4-0 at one point. Starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw didn’t have his best stuff and was rocked for four runs in the first inning.
He managed to settle down after the first inning and thankfully for him, the Dodgers offense woke up. Los Angeles trimmed the deficit down to 4-3 before the Rays grabbed another run.
The Dodgers eventually took the lead but still ended up losing the game in extra innings. After the fact, Kershaw addressed his poor performance but credited the team for showing what they could do despite the early deficit.
