After having a worrying start last time out, Clayton Kershaw looked much better today in a brutal matchup against the lefty-mashing Phillies. After not striking out anybody before, he struck out five today in 4.2 innings, giving up a run on five hits in 81 pitches.
His day ended in the 5th when he was driven from the game by a Kyle Schwarber single to give the Phillies a 1-0 lead.
After he threw eight pitches, getting an out and giving up a single, he then grabbed his hammy on a pitch and exited the game with injury.
Brent Honeywell Jr. entered in his place and ... didn't have it early, which to be fair is difficult circumstance to enter to. He issued a walk that was charged to Graterol, gave up a single to score a run, issued another walk to load the bases, and gave up another single for two more runs before he got out of the frame. 4-0 Phillies.
