Clayton Kershaw News: Victorious in final start

Kershaw (11-2) earned the win in Sunday's 6-1 win over Seattle, striking out seven and allowing four hits and one walk over 5.1 scoreless innings.

The future Hall of Famer dazzled in his last regular-season start, generating 16 whiffs out of his 94 total pitches to stymy the division-winning Mariners. The only extra-base hit Kershaw allowed was a Miles Mastrobuoni double in the third inning. The star southpaw wraps his final regular season with a 3.36 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 84:35 K:BB across 112.2 total innings. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed prior to Sunday's game that because Kershaw was making a normal start in the regular-season finale, the southpaw wouldn't be available for the team's three-game wild-card series with the Reds, per Andrew Destin of the Associated Press. Kershaw could still be included on the roster for the NLDS if the Dodgers are able to advance past the wild-card round.
