Saunders: Clayton Kershaw’s diva act, Greg Holland’s closing act and assorted Rockies notes

Cleaning out my baseball notebook …

Kershaw’s comments: In case you missed it, Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw got upset because Rockies starter Tyler Anderson was jogging in from the bullpen, delaying the start of Wednesday’s game.

“That was one of the more disrespectful things I have been a part of in a game,” Kershaw said after the game. “I really didn’t appreciate that. The game starts at 7:10 and has started at 7:10 here for a long time. Just go around, or finish earlier. But yeah, that wasn’t appreciated for sure.”

I’ve always admired Kershaw and love watching him pitch, but Kershaw’s postgame comments sounded like a spoiled diva’s.
