Another disappointing loss has the Los Angeles Dodgers facing the prospect of being swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks in a three-game series for a second time this season. Since last season, the Diamondbacks have won the last 11 regular-season meetings.
In addition to the Dodgers looking for their first win against the National League West foe, Clayton Kershaw takes the mound for his fourth start searching for the same. He’s 0-2 thus far but pitched to a 1.89 ERA, 3.55 FIP and 1.11 WHIP in 19 innings.
In his last start against the San Francisco Giants, Kershaw allowed just six hits and one earned run over seven-plus innings pitched.
