Clayton Kershaw will make his first official appearance since retiring the first 21 batters nine days ago when the Los Angeles Dodgers seek to complete a four-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants Sunday at Dodger Stadium.
Kershaw became the only pitcher since 1961 -- the earliest complete records are available -- to pitch seven perfect innings twice in a season when he retired the first 21 Los Angeles Angels batters July 15 before allowing a leadoff double by Luis Rengifo in the eighth inning of a 9-1 victory.
Kershaw was the National League's starting pitcher in Tuesday's All- Star Game at Dodger Stadium. Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Shohei Ohtani, who had gone hitless in three at-bats against Kershaw on July 15, striking out twice, hit Kershaw's first pitch for a broken bat single into center field. Kershaw then picked off Ohtani.
Kershaw will be making his second appearance against the Giants this season. He allowed two runs on three hits in four innings and was charged with the loss in a 3-2 loss June 11 at San Francisco in a game the Dodgers trailed 2-0 when he left the game.Right-hander Alex Cobb is set to start for San Francisco, facing the Dodgers for the first time in a major league career that began in 2011 and was spent entirely in the American League before signing with the Giants in November.
