Dodgers ride Clayton Kershaw, but bullpen blows it late against White Sox

Clayton Kershaw gave up two runs and struck out five, but the bullpen was ineffective as the Chicago White Sox rallied late to beat the Dodgers 8-4.

Bullpen gives up six runs in final two innings and blow 4-2 lead as Dodgers lose to the Chicago White Sox.

Left-hander Alex Vesia replaced Almonte and hit Andrew Benintendi with a pitch. Benintendi took second on a wild pitch and scored on Clint Frazier’s single to center for a 5-4 lead. Jimenez added an RBI single off Tayler Scott, and Benintendi hit a two-run single off Victor González in the top of the ninth.

Kershaw grooved a 92-mph fastball to Burger, who drove a solo homer to right-center field in the second inning for a 1-0 White Sox lead, and Kershaw failed to bury a 74-mph curve to Luis Robert Jr., who golfed the pitch into the left-field pavilion for a 2-0 lead in the third.
