Spring Training Preview: Clayton Kershaw Faces Shohei Ohtani In Dodgers-Angels Matchup

One day after facing the Chicago Cubs for the first time since the 2017 National League Championship Series, the Los Angeles Dodgers now head to Tempe Diablo Stadium for their first Cactus League matchup against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

Clayton Kershaw makes his third start of the spring, and he’s looking to extend his shutout work. In his previous outing against the Chicago White Sox, the left-hander yielded just two baserunners across two innings with two strikeouts.

Furthermore, Kershaw has posted a minuscule 0.67 WHIP across three innings this spring. His start Wednesday comes with added intrigue as Shohei Ohtani is batting seventh as the designated hitter.
