Kershaw was hit around by the Cubs on Sunday, giving up four runs on 11 hits (three home runs) over 4.1 innings. He walked two and struck out six in a game where the Dodgers would eventually prevail 9-4.
The Dodgers' ace didn't have his best stuff in this one, failing to escape the fifth inning for the first time this season. Surprisingly, this was the second time that the southpaw surrendered three homers in the same outing, with the other instance coming against the Rockies on April 8. Even with Sunday's poor performance, Kershaw still owns a 2.37 ERA, which is a testament to how dominant he has been this season. Expect the 29-year-old to bounce back in his next start against the Brewers on Friday.
