The Los Angeles Dodgers are navigating a key late-season stretch, and on Wednesday, they’ll do it without one of their biggest stars.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are riding high in the Reds series thanks to Clayton Kershaw. The Dodgers superstar has been untouchable in August. He posted a perfect 5-0 record with a 1.88 ERA this month. Those numbers are nothing short of unbelievable. The Dodgers needed that steady arm, and Kershaw has delivered. He has successfully […]

Clayton Kershaw, without a doubt, has been slowing down with age. But every now and then, Kershaw shows why he’s one of the greatest pitchers to ever suit up in MLB and why he’s bound for Cooperstown in first-ballot fashion once he’s eligible. On Tuesday night, Kershaw’s agelessness shone through as he continued to dominate […]

After missing almost two months of action, Kike Hernandez was activated from the injured list this past Monday, with the Los Angeles Dodgers welcoming back their usual October hero ahead of their three-game series over the Cincinnati Reds to begin the year.

Better yet, the 2024 World Series […]

As Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani hit his 45th home run in Sunday’s 8-2 win over the San Diego Padres, the sensation would also encounter a loud distraction from the stands.
