Clayton Kershaw lost for the first time since May, allowing the go-ahead run when Max Muncy misplayed a potential inning-ending double-play grounder in a 2-1 defeat to the San Francisco Giants that left the Los Angeles Dodgers one win shy of 100 going into their season finale.
Clayton Kershaw lost for the first time since May, allowing the go-ahead run when Max Muncy misplayed a potential inning-ending double-play grounder in a 2-1 defeat to the San Francisco Giants on Saturday night that left the Los Angeles Dodgers one win shy of 100 going into their season finale.
"Whenever it is, I'm just excited to get to do it," Kershaw said."It'll be fun. With the way this year kind of went, I didn't really expect to be in this spot for a lot of reasons. But it's here and if that happens, I'll be ready." With runners at the corners, Wilmer Flores hit a hard grounder to third only for Muncy to bobble the ball twice and not get off a throw. Muncy was charged with an error and Flores was credited with an RBI.
NL West champion Los Angeles is attempting to reach 100 wins for the third straight year following the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. A day after firing manager Gabe Kapler, San Francisco started six rookies under interim manager Kai Correa: Fitzgerald, Bailey, Luis Matos, Marco Luciano, Casey Schmitt and Heliot Ramos.
