The visitors send RHP Yu Darvish (1-1, 2.55 ERA) to the hill to face the Dodgers’ LHP Clayton Kershaw (3-1, 2.19 ERA). These two guys met last Saturday and Darvish gave up just one hit and struck out nine. Despite that, Kershaw and the Dodgers beat him 2-0.
Today in Dodgers’ history:
- 1958 In a 7-6 loss to Chicago at the LA Coliseum, two Dodger mainstays from Brooklyn reach career milestones. First baseman Gil Hodges, who will finish his 18-year major league tenure with 370 home runs, hits his 300th career round-tripper, and Captain Pee Wee Reese, a future Hall of Fame shortstop, plays in his 2000th game.
