Dodgers at Diamondbacks, 5:10PM PT, TV: SPNLA
Clayton Kershaw goes for his first win of the season against rookie Archie Bradley. Bradley is regarded by MLB.com as the D-Backs top prospect. In spring training he was 3-2 with a 1.61 ERA, 14 Ks and a 2.00 WHIP over 22 innings.
It seems like a mismatch, but as Joe Garagiola once said, “baseball is a funny game.”

Puig is off to a slow start at 2 for 17, so that may explain why he’s sitting this evening.
