For the first time since June 26, Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw pitched in an official game Saturday. He tossed three innings for the Single-A Rancho Cucamonga Quakes in his first rehab start following a back injury.

Kershaw struck out five in his three innings and allowed only an infield single. He threw 34 pitches, so after exiting the game, he went down to the bullpen to throw some more and get his pitch count up to 50.
