Clayton Kershaw is officially back, and he made his presence known on Thursday night with a dazzling performance, allowing just one run across five dominant innings against the Colorado Rockies.
The Dodgers want to ease their ace back in, which makes sense considering he was sidelined for six weeks with a weird shoulder issue.
However, he picked up right he left off in his return, and provided a welcome sight to a Dodgers rotation that has been rounding into form as of late.
After his first game back since the end of June, Kershaw expressed his delight in just being able to play again.
