After being dismissive when asked about Misiorowski ahead of Tuesday’s game, Kershaw praises the hard-throwing Brewers right-hander’s performance against the Dodgers.

When asked about Misiorowski, this is what Kershaw told beat reporter Bill Plunkett: “I don’t even know who I’m pitching against. (Miz) Is that the guy who twisted his ankle on the mound. The ‘Twisted-His-Ankle’ guy. I know he throws hard. I saw a couple highlights. He throws hard. But so does everybody. Except me.”
