Clayton Kershaw is on the brink of a major milestone, needing just three strikeouts to reach 3,000 for his career.

As in, 3,000 strikeouts. Only 20 pitchers have ever totaled that number, with all-time legend Clayton Kershaw finally getting there in July of 2025. It was quite a moment, with Los Angeles Dodgers fans rightfully celebrating the heck out of it.

The Los Angeles Dodgers completed the first of what’s expected to be an estimate six weeks of not having Max Muncy in their lineup as he recovers from a bone bruise in his left knee.

Kershaw, 37, left with the Dodgers trailing the Chicago White Sox 4-2 – and the home crowd roaring after his achievement. He was on the hook for the loss until the Dodgers rallied with three runs in the bottom of the ninth, earning a 5-4 win with Freddie Freeman's walk-off single.

I’ve been through it. Ups and downs here. More downs than I care to admit. But the fans tonight, it really meant a lot," Kershaw said.
