Dodgers’ Kershaw on IL with low back pain; Taylor activated

Published August 5, 2022 6:56 PM

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers placed left-hander Clayton Kershaw on the 15-day injured list Friday, one day after he left a start with lower back pain. This marks the 34-year-old Kershaw’s second trip to the injured list this season. He was previously sidelined with inflammation in a pelvic joint. Kershaw had an X-ray and an MRI on Friday, and nothing new was revealed in the MRI. Manager Dave Roberts said Kershaw was sore on Friday, and that prompted to the IL move. Kershaw’s previous back injury was on the right side, and this one is more on the left side, according to Roberts.
