Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw: Touched up in Loss to Pirates

Kershaw was touched up for four runs on nine hits and two walks across six innings in Sunday's loss to the Pirates. He struck out four.

Analysis:

Kershaw was excellent aside from the second inning, when he allowed all four runs on five hits and a walk. Sunday's disappointing outing actually puts Kershaw's dominance in perspective, as the pair of walks represented a new season-high, and he gave up more than two earned runs for just the second time. He will host the Rockies in his next start Friday and should be a safe bet for a bounce-back performance.
