Dodgers News: Craig Kimbrel Will Return Today

Sunday afternoon was a bitter ending to an otherwise great weekend series against the Padres. The Dodgers carried a 1-0 lead into the 9th shouldered by an outstanding effort from Clayton Kershaw. But that lead melted away as soon as a Jake Cronenwort line drive struck Craig Kimbrel in the back.

The Dodgers bullpen melted down from there and they lost their only game of the 4-game series. But they also feared that they had lost Kimbrel after taking that liner off of his back. The closer underwent a CT scan to see if there was underlying damage to his scapula.
