Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw Leaves Start Against Diamondbacks with Toe Injury

Update: Kershaw to Undergo MRI

Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw left his start against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday with a left toe injury.

Kershaw, a three-time Cy Young Award winner, exited the game in the fourth inning after experiencing discomfort in his toe.

The Dodgers announced that Kershaw will undergo an MRI on Sunday to determine the severity of the injury.

The injury to Kershaw is a significant blow to the Dodgers, who are already without several key players due to injuries.

Walker Buehler, Dustin May, and Blake Treinen are all currently on the injured list.

Kershaw's injury could have a major impact on the Dodgers' chances of reaching the postseason.

The Dodgers are currently in first place in the NL West, but they are just 2.5 games ahead of the San Diego Padres.

Kershaw has a history of back and shoulder injuries.

He missed most of the 2021 season with a left forearm injury.

The Dodgers are likely to take a cautious approach with Kershaw's latest injury, given his injury history.

The Dodgers will wait for the results of Kershaw's MRI before making any decisions on his future availability.

In the meantime, Julio Urías will likely take over as the Dodgers' ace.
