Clayton Kershaw wobbly on emotional night as Dodgers’ winning streak ends

LA Times  

Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw sits in the dugout during the fourth inning of a 5-1 loss to the Minnesota Twins at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night. “Obviously, he’s never been in this situation before, but I expect it to go well and for him to do what he’s supposed to do.” Kershaw fell short on both counts in a 5-1 loss to the Minnesota Twins before a sellout crowd of 52,159, grinding through a wobbly four-inning, two-run, seven-hit, 90-pitch start in which he failed to provide much relief for a bullpen that had to cover eight innings in Monday night’s 12-inning victory. She was a great lady.” The Twins put Kershaw on his heels early when Donovan Solano led off the game with a double to left and scored on Kyle Farmer’s two-out RBI single to left for a 1-0 lead. The Dodgers pulled to within 3-1 in the fifth when Rojas doubled and scored on Freddie Freeman’s bloop single to center, but they failed to capitalize on another leadoff double — this one by Peralta off reliever Brock Stewart — in the seventh, the inning ending with pinch-hitter Chris Taylor flying out with the bases loaded.
