Clayton Kershaw helps Dodgers right ship vs. rival Padres

Los Angeles – Their companions were being linked again, their bitter rivals were growing, partition was slipping, and under those circumstances, Clayton Care – Clearly reduced but still came through every bit- it came through.

with Los angeles doors Four-game losing streak riding, and hosting a host San diego padress The team that wins five directly to make 10 games in six weeks intervals, Karshaw firing six innings of a run ball on Friday night, cut through a insect-up series to set a tone in one. 3-2 wins At the Dodger Stadium.

The National League West, a division the dujers led nine games six weeks ago, is tied once again. Padress and Dozers will play five more games against each other in the next nine days.

Dosers manager Dave Roberts said, “Tonight we had the right man on the mound.” “I think we all know this.”

Karesh made his debut in mid -May with 2025 rotation, completely after recovering from the offsen knee and leg surgery, and helped to stabilize a group, which once again found bruises surrounded by injuries. Their early results were only decent – 12 in 12 ERA begins, with 39 strikeouts and 59 presents in the innings were 18 walks – but their availability was important.

Over the last few weeks, as the rotation of the doors has stabilized, Korshav has tapped the second level.

The beginning of the three of this month has seen him going to six innings in a combination of just two runs. Friday night, the only loss against him was one Ramon laureno Solo Homer, which was closed with dishonest pole in the left region. Kreshaw painted a sharp-to-normal slider and allowed only two other Basarner, while only 186 pitches were required to complete 18 outs. Fifteen starts in its age -37 season, it is 7–2 with 3.01 ERA.

“This is just what you are going to do,” Karshava recently said about being in his best form. “As a starter, you are going to pitch well. And when it is your turn, take steps. And our rotation is getting healthy. We get a lot of people who can really throw the balls well, so I just want to share my share.”

Friday started with news Max MunsiThe third day-long basman of the doors and a significant middle-order bat, completing a diagonally tension, will keep him out for the next several weeks. Muni joined Tommy adman, Enric Hernandez And Hysong kim In the injured list, motivating an miscreants (Alex freeland) And a tripler (Buddy Kennedy) To fill. Bulpen, meanwhile, was already down as six high-leading relievers, which severely limited the options of Roberts for late hold.

The doseers were in dire need of six innings of Kersh. But they also needed contribution Teser hernandezWhich was carrying 0.673 OPS since the beginning of July, but provided an important insurance run with the seventh-inning homer. And they required production from their bullpen, where five reliever allowed just one run in the last three innings.

“It was a high intensity game,” said Roberts. “It certainly as far as anger was internal, but I think I could see it as far as I could see it on the field. I could feel it. Our attention was curious. They really picked it well.

The last time was faced with doors and padresses, it was in mid -June, between a stretch in which they played seven games against each other in 11 days – last October on a stressful NL Division series on heels. Dozers won five of the games that included three out of three in the Dodger Stadium. In La, eight hits appeared from pitches in four-market sets, half of which were scattered. Fernando Tatis JRAnd Shohi OhtaniThe closing noted that Roberts shoved Padress manager Mike Shield, while evacuating both the Dugout and Bulpen.

At that time, five games were better than Dojers Padress and were ready for cruise for the 12th division title in 13 years. The next two weeks only strengthened that belief. The Dozers then navigated through one of their dry mantras over the years, lost 22 out of 31 games after July 3 – including the three from Angel Stadium earlier this week. Bulpen was a mess, the crime was inconsistent, and the Padress, was provoked by a string of business-dedeline acquisition from his aggressive general manager, who were doing a high ride.

For one night, at least, Korshev and his colleagues stopped him.

“It just takes one to go,” said Kerresh. “Hope it was for us tonight.”
