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.”

The visiting Los Angeles Dodgers will look to even the series against Milwaukee on Tuesday night behind veteran left-hander Clayton Kershaw -- the newest member of baseball's 3,000-strikeout club -- while the Brewers will counter with hard-throwing rookie sensation Jacob Misiorowski.

Kershaw was chosen for his 11th All-Star team by MLB commissioner Rob Manfred based on career achievement, an honor that has been awarded only a handful of times.
