The Arizona Diamondbacks are in a funk, losers of 4 straight and 9 of their last 10, and it won’t get any easier for them tonight when they host the Los Angeles Dodgers. Clayton Kershaw is slated to get the start for the Dodgers and he is having another stellar year. Kershaw is 5-1 with a 1.50 ERA and a 0.72 WHIP. That’s nasty stuff. Taylor Clarke, who is expected on the hill for the Snakes, will be making his 4th start of the season and has pitched well, with a record of 1-0, a 2.96 ERA, and a WHIP of 1.17, but is 1-2 in his career against the Dodgers with a 5.06 ERA. LA has had Arizona’s number, going 6-0 in their last 6 meetings, and they are 5-1 in their last 6 at Chase Field.
TONIGHT’S PICK: LOS ANGELES DODGERS
