What Happened to Clayton Kershaw? The Pitcher Left the Game

“Just felt something kind of lock up there in the fifth and couldn’t really throw after that,” Clayton told ESPN. “Something in my back again.”

“Obviously, anytime a pitcher’s got to come out of a game, there’s some concern level,” Dave Roberts, the manager of the Dodgers, said. “Given it’s his back which has been problematic at times — we just won’t know more until we get some tests.”
