""Obviously, I'd like to keep pitching. I tried to stay as loose as I could, but it just kept going longer. In hindsight, they probably should have waited to start the game for a while.""
""Starting pitchers typically get pulled after a lengthy rain delay due to the risk of injury from already having warmed up and then not throwing for an extended period.""
In the Dodgers' opener against the Mets, rain led to a substantial delay, cutting short Clayton Kershaw's second start of the season. Kershaw displayed strong initial performance with two hitless innings but was unable to return after a one-hour and thirty-eight-minute interruption. The delay posed management concerns given his recent recovery from surgery. Subsequent pitching duties were handled by team members who ultimately secured a 7-5 victory despite bullpen challenges, highlighting Kershaw's improvement compared to his first outing.
