"We couldn't talk about the 2025 season without including future Hall of Fame starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw, and his farewell tour will occupy the No. 8 spot on Dodgers Nation's Top 10 Dodgers Highlights of 2025. The Los Angeles Dodgers selected Kershaw out of Highland Park High School with the seventh overall pick in the 2006 draft, and he spent 18 seasons pitching for LA before retiring at the end of the 2025 season."
"The left-hander made his final start in front of the home crowd against the San Francisco Giants on Sept. 19, and lasted 4.1 innings before leaving to a standing ovation. He allowed two runs in the outing, striking out six batters, and the Dodgers went on to win the game, 6-3. His next appearance came out of the bullpen, a rare occurrence for the veteran."
"He entered a high-leverage situation against the Arizona Diamondbacks Sept. 24, posting a scoreless inning and helping the Dodgers to yet another win. Kershaw made his final start as a Dodger against the Seattle Mariners on Sept. 28, and gave Dodger fans a final dominant outing to remember him by. He threw 5.1 scoreless innings in the outing, striking out seven on his way to a final win in Dodger blue."
Clayton Kershaw concluded an 18-season career with the Los Angeles Dodgers by retiring at the end of the 2025 season.

He later provided a scoreless bullpen inning in a high-leverage role Sept. 24, and delivered a dominant final start Sept. 28 against Seattle, throwing 5.1 scoreless innings with seven strikeouts for his final Dodger win.
