What did Clayton Kershaw and Dave Roberts say about the left-hander’s outing?
“We talked a little bit today about intensity, and there’s nobody more intense or focused than Clayton. He has a way of elevating people’s focus and game.

And for me, there was no reason why I felt I needed to press him any further.”, Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.
“It’s an August game, obviously. It’s not a big deal. But the way we were, it seemed like a big game for us. Grateful that we got a win. It’s going to be six fun weeks.
