CLAYTON KERSHAW NEWS

Starting first game of twin bill Kershaw will start the first game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Giants, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact After Dodgers and Giants players agreed to postpone Wednesday's game, the two teams will wrap up their series Thursday with a twin bill. Kershaw was initially slated to start Wednesday, so he'll simply pick up an extra day of rest coming off his most extensive workload of the season. He tossed 96 pitches his last time out Aug. 20 against the Mariners, striking out 11 over seven innings while allowing one run on four hits and a walk.

Fans 11 in third win Kershaw (3-1) picked up the win in Thursday's 6-1 victory over the Mariners, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over seven innings. He struck out a season-high 11.

Impact It was a vintage Kershaw performance, as the lefty fired 63 of 96 pitches for strikes en route to his second straight quality start. He did serve up his fifth homer in 24 innings, a fourth-inning solo shot by Kyle Seager, but if he can keep the bases clear the long ball tendencies that have cropped up in recent seasons won't hurt him too badly. Kershaw will carry a 2.25 ERA and 29:4 K:BB into his next outing Wednesday in San Francisco.

Kershaw bounced back after an ugly start against Arizona on Aug. 8 and has posted a 2.65 ERA with a stellar 0.82 WHIP and 9.5 K/9 in his first three outings of the season. His next scheduled start will come on the road against the Mariners on Aug. 20.
