Clayton Kershaw calls out Dodgers after getting swept

The Los Angeles Dodgers were swept at home by the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, and Clayton Kershaw was not taking it lightly.

The Brewers beat the Dodgers 6-5 on Sunday at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, Ca. on Sunday. The loss was the Dodgers’ third in a row and 10th in the last 12 games.

For Kershaw, that was not good enough. He actually cut his media session short after Sunday’s game to avoid getting himself in trouble.

“I don’t make anything of it. They beat us. We need to play better tomorrow,” Kershaw told reporters. “I don’t have much to say. I’m going to get myself in trouble, so let’s just call it.”

A frustrated Clayton Kershaw tells them to cut the cameras:

“I don’t make anything of it. They beat us. We need to play better tomorrow… I don’t have much to say. I’m going to get myself in trouble so let’s just call it.”

Kershaw lasted 4.1 innings Sunday, giving up three runs (one earned) on five hits. The Dodgers let him down significantly by making three errors in the game.

The Dodgers have no reason to panic. They are still 3.5 games up in the NL West and headed for the playoffs, but the weekend series could serve as a wake-up call. On the other hand, Sunday’s game may have created a bigger problem for the team going forward.
