After receiving a sound beating at the hands of Justin Turner and the rest of the Dodgers last night, the Braves are now in a position where they have to scramble to avoid getting swept at Dodger Stadium.
If the Braves are going to keep the brooms at bay, then they’ll have to do something that they’ve found to be incredibly difficult over the years — they will have to beat the Dodgers when Clayton Kershaw is the starter. The Dodgers have yet to lose this season with Kershaw as their starter, and they have yet to lose against the Braves with Kershaw as their starter, ever.
