Late in the regular season, the Dodgers were in San Diego for one last regular-season series with the Padres. Los Angeles won two of three games in that series, with the only blemish a 10-inning loss that finally cost Craig Kimbrel his job as closer.
While in San Diego, Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw sat down with San Diego reporter Marty Caswell to talk about a variety of Dodgers/Padres topics. One of those topics was Manny Machado, who was Kershaw’s teammate for three months in 2018 before signing a huge free-agent contract with the Padres.
