For the second time this season, Dodgers starter Clayton Kershaw in on the injured list. The lefty missed most of May with back and hip injury, and last week, he suffered a lower back injury that resulted in him being pulled from his Thursday start in Oracle Park after just four innings.
Kershaw is no stranger to back injuries, they’ve plagued him throughout his career. The southpaw received an epidural to help manage the pain the day after his the injury flared up.
The news of another Kershaw injury conjured up not so fond memories of last season, where Clayton missed all of October due to an elbow injury.
