After a rough Spring Training that saw him post a 10.22 ERA in four starts and battle the same issues that popped up on Opening Day, there were plenty of reasons to be concerned with which Kershaw the Dodgers were going to get in 2021.
But in the Dodgers’ 5-1 win over the A’s on Tuesday night, the 33-year-old lefty helped alleviate some of those concerns in a big way, allowing just one run on four hits and striking out eight over seven strong innings.
It was vintage Kershaw -- and you could practically hear a collective sigh of relief across the greater Los Angeles area. With eight strikeouts on Tuesday, Kershaw now has 2,743 in his career in the regular season and postseason combined. He passed Don Sutton (2,739) for most all-time by a Dodgers pitcher. Sutton is still the franchise’s all-time regular-season strikeout leader with 2,696, but Kershaw is right behind with 2,536.
“I thought he had everything working,” said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. “Just to see him get through seven innings, eight strikeouts and no walks, just a really stellar night.”
Ramón Laureano returned from a wrist injury Tuesday and combined with Jed Lowrie for four of the A’s five hits. The A’s took their first lead of the season in the first inning against Clayton Kershaw; it vanished a half-inning later. Kershaw retired 20 of the final 22 batters he faced. A’s starter Chris Bassitt could not match that pace early against a deep lineup.

Steve Kerr gives a sarcastic answer about the nightly James Wiseman "report card" coverage, then an actual answer: "That's what we're trying to lock in on with James. Simplifying things. Setting a lot of ball screens." Mentioned his "good connection" with Jordan Poole. pic.twitter.com/

Here are the highlights from what's probably James Wiseman's best half as a professional to this point. Attacked the glass, head on swivel for passes, used in more conducive high screen action by Kerr -- 11 points, 10 rebounds, 1 big time block. pic.twitter.com/
