Kershaw 20’ Debut & More

Dodgers vs Diamondbacks 8/2/20

The Los Angeles Dodgers stifled the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday afternoon at Chase Field In Arizona, Cody Bellinger and Mookie Betts both hit homers to back up Kershaw strong outing.

Clayton Kershaw——> Clayton Kershaw made his 2020 debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday afternoon against the Diamondbacks. He pitched really nicely giving up only 2 hits in 5.2 innings pitched. Those hits belonged to Kole Calhoun and Cristian Walker. Kershaw gave up no runs in those innings that he pitched. After Kershaw’s strong outing, will he keep it up and maybe even be a cy young candidate? It’s a bit early to know but if he keeps that up he could easily be in the cy young talk.

Cody Bellinger——> Cody Bellinger launched a 2-Run shot in the first inning giving the dodgers an early 2-0 lead against the dbacks. That is his first homer of the year. Bellinger was out of the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Diamondbacks, after he was batting under .150. And his first at bat from his day off he ripped a line drive that got out of there in a scurry! How many homers do you think he will hit this season? (Vote in poll on my Instagram)

Mookie Betts——> Mookie Betts hit his second homer of the year giving the Dodgers a 3-0 lead! The ball was crushed to the opposite field and landed in the pool in right field. Mookie Betts has been dominating for the Dodgers the past couple of games. Will he be able to keep or even pick up the pace that he is going at? (Not to mention he also hit a double)
