It took long enough, but we now know Joe Ross of the Washington Nationals will face Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of their National League Divisional Series.
Ross has yet to pitch in the series while Kershaw threw five uneasy innings en route to a Game 1 win. If the Dodgers tie the NLDS, Max Scherzer on full rest would face Julio Urias and a potential cast of thousands in Washington on Thursday.
This will be the fourth time in Kershaw’s career he has pitched on three-days rest.
