Kershaw placed on IL due to lingering bone spur

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw went on the injured list due to a bone spur in his toe, the team announced Saturday.

The Dodgers did not specify how long Kershaw would be out.

Kershaw left his start against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night due to pain in his left big toe.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said the pain was a lingering issue from a bone spur.

Kershaw allowed two runs in the first and was pulled with no outs in the second after giving up a homer to Corbin Carroll to start the inning.

Kershaw, 36, has made seven starts since making his season debut in late July. He is 2-2 with a 4.50 ERA.
