"Clayton Kershaw made the final regular season start of his career at Dodger Stadium, and he once again led the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 6-3 victory over the San Francisco Giants. With emotions high throughout the ballpark, and likely for Kershaw as well, he allowed a leadoff homer to Heliot Ramos on the third pitch of the game. But the left-hander bounced back to get two strikeouts in the inning."
"The Dodgers scored their first run in the second inning on a home run from Miguel Rojas. At the time, that tied the game before the Giants re-took the lead. But the Dodgers answered in the fifth inning. After a single from Andy Pages and a walk from Kiké Hernández, Shohei Ohtani blasted a three-run homer to put L.A. up 4-2. Mookie Betts then followed with a solo homer to extend the lead to 5-2."
"After a scoreless second, Kershaw allowed a double to Matt Chapman and an RBI single to Wilmer Flores in the third inning that put the Giants up 2-1. Kershaw worked a scoreless fourth and then took the mound once again in the fifth. After striking out Rafael Devers, Kershaw was taken out of the game, receiving a standing ovation from fans and players alike, and he received hugs from his teammates on the field."
