Mar 28, 2025; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw before the game against the Detroit Tigers at Dodger Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Clayton Kershaw’s road back to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ rotation began Wednesday afternoon in Oklahoma City.
Kershaw made his first rehabilitation appearance, starting for the Triple-A Oklahoma City Comets against the Tacoma Rainiers.
Pitching for the first time since Aug. 30, when he lasted just one inning for the Dodgers in Arizona, Kershaw tossed three scoreless innings while allowing two hits with no walks and two strikeouts. He allowed a single in both the first and third innings.
The Dodgers put Kershaw on the 60-day disabled list at the start of the season because of a left meniscus tear and a toe issue. He’ll be eligible to return to the majors May 17.
Kershaw, 37, didn’t pitch until July 25 last year after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery. In his seven starts, the left-hander went 2-2 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.500 WHIP.
For his career, all 17 years spent with the Dodgers, Kershaw owns a 212-94 record, 2.50 ERA and 1.010 WHIP.
The three-time Cy Young Award winner (2011, 2013, 2014) and 2014 NL MVP has the highest WAR (76.5), position players included, and best WHIP among starting pitchers in franchise history.

What went wrong: How Shedeur Sanders’ descent actually happened pre-draft
Henry McKenna NFL Reporter <!--> There was once an unwritten rule in the corporate hierarchy that an employee should not wear a watch that’s nicer than a superior's. Did Shedeur Sanders consider that on his first day at work Tuesday?It’s not his first job. Once the quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes, Sanders now has a new employer: the Cleveland Browns. And watches are a huge part of his unapologetic persona. It’s not just that he has worn flashy watches on game day, including one that appeared to be worth $350,000. It’s that he flaunts it. When Sanders and a Nebraska player were talking trash before a game, the former Colorado QB put the watch in his opponent’s face. That "watch flex" was also a touchdown celebration, which people copied in just about every league, including the NFL. It became iconic.But that was […]

Giants’ Abdul Carter latest 2025 draft prospect to reveal he was prank called
<!--> The list of players who've shared that they were among those prank called during the 2025 NFL Draft grew on Wednesday. New York Giants rookie edge rusher Abdul Carter also received a prank call during the first round of the draft, agent Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN. Carter, who was drafted by the Giants with the third overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, allegedly received the prank call when the Jacksonville Jaguars traded up to get the No. 2 overall pick from the Cleveland Browns. The Jaguars wound up using the pick on two-way Colorado star Travis Hunter, instead. "It's unfortunate that these private numbers are getting to the people making the prank calls," Rosenhaus said in a statement to ESPN. "Abdul and I knew it was B.S. and didn't even tell his family about the call."Carter is one of at […]
