Kershaw (hip) scratched; Greinke LA's fill-in

LOS ANGELES -- Ace left-hander Clayton Kershaw was scratched from a start for the second time this week because of a right hip injury, leading the Dodgers to start righty Zack Greinke instead on Friday night against the Angels.

Kershaw, who missed a start in 2012 with a right hip impingement, has a consecutive-scoreless-innings streak of 29 and is coming off a shutout of the Mets in New York.

But Kershaw, who was scratched from his scheduled start on Wednesday and rescheduled for Friday night, is now scheduled to start Saturday afternoon, the club said.
