Major League Baseball (MLB) LA Dodgers Clayton Kershaw will end the season without taking the mound in autumn due to a toe injury.
ESPN reported on the 6th (Korea time) that "Kershaw cannot play in 2024 postseason games."
According to the report, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced that Kershaw's season is over. "Kershaw did everything he could to take the mound in the postseason. But physically, he didn't follow his feet and toes. It's getting worse. That's all for Kershaw's 2024."
Kershaw, who entered the big league in 2008, is the ace player of the past with 212-94 record and 2.50 ERA while playing for the Dodgers. He also won the Cy Young Award, which is given to the best pitcher of the MLB, three times, and won the MVP award in 2014.
However, this season, he pitched only 30 innings in seven games, winning 2 and losing 2 with a 4.50 ERA.
After undergoing shoulder surgery late last year, he focused on rehabilitation for this season, and made his first appearance (two runs in four innings) on July 26 against the San Francisco Giants. However, after playing against the Arizona Diamondbacks (three runs in one inning) on August 31, he was listed on the injured list due to pain in his left big toe.
After that, he couldn't return and finished the regular season as it was, but he couldn't go out in the fall baseball.
"I was getting quite tired mentally as I kept trying to pitch," Kershaw said. "I kept getting sick, and I did MRI again. I'm really disappointed. I can't throw the ball because it's not getting any better." 먹튀검증

The Dodgers will release Yamamoto Yoshinobu as the starting pitcher for the first game of the NLDS against San Diego.
