Clayton Kershaw is receiving treatment for minor back discomfort, but he is expected to make his next start for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Dave Roberts insisted that the injury did not affect his pitcher's six-inning start Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Kershaw gave up both his second-most hits (nine) and runs (four) on Sunday night.

Roberts called Kershaw's lower-back discomfort an "off-and-on issue" but sounded far from concerned about it, saying Kershaw "absolutely" would make his next scheduled start.
