Preview: Clayton Kershaw, Dodgers Look To Right Ship In Series Finale Against Marlins

After a pair of closely-contested games, the Los Angeles Dodgers and Miami Marlins now meet for the rubber match at Dodger Stadium. The series finale comes with an odd start time for a weekday game in Los Angeles, with first pitch set for 4:35 p.m. PT.

Clayton Kershaw takes the mound for his sixth start and enters with a 1-3 record, 2.45 ERA, 2.90 FIP and 0.97 WHIP. Kershaw coming off a loss to the Washington Nationals in which he allowed a season-high nine hits and four runs in seven innings.

If there’s a silver lining of sorts for Kershaw, he’s gone at least six innings in all five starts, including seven in each of the past three. He’s a career 5-4 with a 2.57 ERA in 10 starts against the Marlins.

Miami counters with Trevor Richards, who’s winless in four starts this season. He’s 0-2 with a 6.16 ERA and 1.68 WHIP.

The rookie has allowed five runs in two of his starts, though did throw seven shutout innings against the Pittsburgh Pirates on April 14. Richards will look to continue stifling a Dodgers lineup that’s stalled the past two games.

They’ve been held to just four runs and 11 hits during that span. Chris Taylor enters play with a seven-game hitting streak.

Dodgers lineup:

CF: Chris Taylor
SS: Corey Seager
C: Yasmani Grandal
1B: Cody Bellinger
RF: Matt Kemp
LF: Joc Pederson
2B: Chase Utley
3B: Kiké Hernandez
P: Clayton Kershaw

Marlins lineup:

LF: Derek Dietrich
C: J.T. Realmuto
2B: Starlin Castro
3B: Brian Anderson
1B: Justin Bour
RF: Cameron Maybin
SS: Miguel Rojas
CF: Lewis Brinson
P: Trevor Richards
